SMB have been listed in the prestigious The Times Best Law Firms list for 2022. As a new entry, we are recognised for a number of notable cases that we have been involved with over the past year, including the ‘libel case of the century’ Depp V News Group Newspapers Ltd. The Times also recognised our landmark ruling in Tomlinson-Blake v Royal Mencap Society in which Partner James Davies was recognised as The Times Lawyer of the Week.
