Bates Wells has been named in The Times Best Law Firms 2026, commended for its work in administrative & public law, charities, employment, and immigration.

The Times highlighted our work on the Football Governance Act, our advice to the ONE Campaign on challenging the government’s overseas aid cuts; and our groundbreaking work for House of Hackney, which included the appointment of a ‘Mother Nature and Future Generations’ Director to its board.

Congratulations to all the teams whose work has been recognised in this year’s guide.
