Solicitors are in the top 200

The regional firm has climbed 15 places on the magazine’s annual list to come in at number 150 – a fitting ranking as the business is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year.

Managing partner Chris Whiteley said: ‘We are thrilled to have risen so many places in the space of a year. The past 12 months have seen a great deal of growth for Trethowans, following our merger with Dickinson Manser in Poole which has helped to bolster our ongoing growth across all offices.’

Trethowans, which has offices in Poole, Salisbury, Southampton, Winchester and London, gives advice and support on a range of legal issues. It is also the headline sponsor of the Business Excellence Awards, run by The News.
