Moore Law is pleased to announce that we have once again been ranked by the Legal 500 as a top-tier firm. We are ranked for our work in the Media & Entertainment, Sport, Intellectual Property, and Corporate & Commercial sectors.

The Legal 500 analyses the capabilities and strengths of law firms globally. Its rankings are designed to reflect the “real world experience of law firm clients”.

The Legal 500 states: “We highlight the practice area teams who are providing the most cutting edge and innovative advice to corporate counsel. Our research is based on feedback from 300,000 clients worldwide, submissions from law firms and interviews with leading private practice lawyers, and a team of
researchers who have unrivalled experience in the legal market.”

Moore Law, which was founded in 2012, has consistently been ranked as one of the very best firms in the South East for its work in the Sport and Media & Entertainment sectors. This year, we have retained the highest possible ranking (Tier 1) for our Media & Entertainment work, alongside just two other law firms. We also maintained our Intellectual Property and Corporate & Commercial “Leading Firm” rankings. In an Olympic year, when we have been exceptionally busy servicing our Sport clients, we were disappointed to slip from Tier 1 to Tier 2 in the Sport practice area, which we see as one of our strongest. We had enjoyed the highest ranking for a number of years, alongside just one other regional firm.

With lots of incoming work from our existing clients, and some exciting new clients coming on board, we hope to be back on the top of the rostrum next year! Thank you to all those who have provided the Legal 500 with testimonials it is really appreciated.

This is what the Legal 500 had to say about our Sport practice: “This boutique practice has excellent industry knowledge (Sport) and goes the extra mile for clients. There is an understanding of what high level sport involves, as well as a holistic understanding of how the legal issues fit together in this unique sector.”

Another testimonial highlights the expertise of Moore Law’s Head of Sport Mike Townley, named a Leading Partner by the Legal 500: “I have worked mostly with Mike Townley who is committed to his clients and prepares matters with the rigor, resilience and attention to detail of a high-level athlete.

Managing Partner, Tris Moore, said: “Being recognised as one of the ‘go-to’ firms in the South East for our work in the Media & Entertainment and Sport sectors bears testament to the quality of our clients and the quality of our lawyers and their work, and is something we are really proud of.”

Head of Sport, Mike Townley, added: “Our success in maintaining
our position in these rankings matters, because it reflects what our clients think about us.”
