Burgess Mee is pleased to have been recognised once again as a leading law firm in the 2027 edition of Chambers UK.

The firm retains its Band 2 rankings for both ‘Family/Matrimonial Finance: High Net Worth’ and ‘Family/Children Law’ in London, with five lawyers receiving individual recognition.

Partners Peter Burgess, Antonia Mee, David Lillywhite and Rachel Freeman are recognised in the ‘Family/Matrimonial Finance: High Net Worth’ category, with legal director Alice Rogers named as an ‘Associate to Watch’. Peter and Antonia are also ranked for ‘Family/Children Law’.

The guide highlights the firm’s work advising wealthy clients on financial matters and its experience in private children cases, including international relocations and parental disputes involving allegations of abuse. It also recognises the team’s knowledge of modern families, particularly fertility treatment and surrogacy.

Client feedback reflects the firm’s approach to supporting families through difficult circumstances. One respondent said:“

The team treats clients as individuals rather than cases, creating a supportive and reassuring environment during what are often highly stressful matters.”

‍Another described the children team as “really professional, child centred and robust.”

Feedback on the matrimonial finance team was equally positive, with one client commenting:“I felt like every interaction I had was prompt and sensible. I felt I could trust the team at Burgess Mee to get the details I wanted and fight my corner. They are extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and understanding.”

‍We would like to thank everyone who contributed to the research and congratulate our recognised lawyers and the wider Burgess Mee team.
