Legal 500 2025 top rated ranking

Our team is once again celebrating as our Crime and Family Law Teams have retained their band 1 rankings in the Legal 5oo 2025 for the North region.

The annual rankings are released each Autumn after extensive independent investigation throughout the year from the Legal 500 team.

Family law partners Elspeth Thomson and Lucy Mead are noted as ‘Leading Partners’ in their field. Head of Crime and Partner Brian Hegarty is also a leading Partner, with newly promoted Partner Janice Hall declared a ‘Leading Associate.’

Well done Team DG!
