Law firm Mills & Reeve's private wealth team has scooped a coveted industry award.
The firm, which has an office in Birmingham, took home the prize for Regional Law Firm of the Year at this year's Citywealth Magic Circle Awards.
It beat off competition from Bond Dickinson, Cripps Harries Hall, Gordons, JMW Solicitors, Laytons, Michelmores and Turcan Connell to secure the title.
Now in its ninth year, the awards are run by Citywealth, the magazine for global wealth management experts dealing with £20 million+ high net worth clients.
Mills and Reeve's national private wealth team, made up of more than 100 lawyers, advises high net worth individuals, entrepreneurs and professionals on estate planning, including wills, trusts, family investment companies and family charters.
Matthew Hansell, Mills & Reeve's Birmingham-based head of private wealth, has a private client base estimated to be worth more than £4 billion.
He said: "It is an honour to have the hard work of our team recognised in this way. This award reflects Mills & Reeve's strong position in the private wealth advisory market and the quality of service that our team offers."
The winners were announced at an awards ceremony in London.
