Legal 500 review of The West Country

The West Country: Foot Anstey, Bond Pearce LLP, Ashfords and Stephens & Scown all have offices in Exeter and Plymouth, and are all well respected for their corporate advice to the SME sector. Of these, only Stephens & Scown has a significant presence in Cornwall. Exeter-based Michelmores has an excellent reputation for its commercial property practice, disputes, high-value government projects and SME corporate work. In 2004 the firm opened a London office, which forms an important part of its plan to double in size in five years.
Following its demerger from what is now Bevan Brittan LLP, Ashfords has opened a small office in Bristol. In May 2005 Foot Anstey (previously Foot Anstey Sargent) merged with Somerset-based firm Alms & Young, adding another six partners to the practice.
