Kuits celebrates strong rankings in The Legal 500 2027

Manchester commercial law, Kuits Solicitors, is celebrating an increase in Leading Individuals and ranked lawyers, while receiving firm-wide recognition across its practice areas.

Kuits has strengthened its position in the 2027 edition of The Legal 500 United Kingdom, with an increase in both the number of lawyers recognised as Leading Individuals and the overall number of ranked lawyers across the firm.

The firm’s Private Client team has retained its Tier 1 ranking, reflecting its continued standing among the leading practices in the North West. Every other Kuits department submitted to the guide also secured a ranking, demonstrating the breadth and consistency of expertise across the firm.

The growth in individual rankings is a particular highlight, with more Kuits lawyers named among The Legal 500’s Leading Individuals and a wider group recognised for their expertise and contribution to their respective practice areas. The results underline the depth of talent at every level of the business and the firm’s commitment to developing and retaining outstanding lawyers.

Steve Eccleston, Managing Partner at Kuits, said: “These results are a fantastic reflection of the quality, commitment and teamwork evident across Kuits. To see an increase in both Leading Individuals and ranked lawyers is especially pleasing, as it recognises the expertise of our people and the difference they make for clients every day.”

Robert Levy, Executive Partner added: “The Private Client team’s continued Tier 1 status, alongside rankings for all our other departments, speaks to the strength of the firm as a whole. We are grateful to our clients for their feedback and to everyone at Kuits whose hard work has made this recognition possible.”
