Appleby Isle of Man has now held the Island’s top spot in all three leading independent legal directories for five consecutive years, after receiving tier one rankings once again in 2013.

In the latest results, published on 30 October by Chambers & Partners UK, Appleby received a tier one ranking for its Corporate Finance and Dispute Resolution work, with sources describing the firm as a “approachable, responsive and able to cater for all needs” whose “advice and support is first-rate”.

This accolade follows the firm’s recent success in the Legal 500 Series earlier in the month, when the team achieved tier one rankings in seven out of eight categories. 15 individual lawyers including all ten Isle of Man partners were also recognised.

Appleby’s corporate and commercial practice in the Isle of Man has also been ranked tier one in the ILFR 1000 rankings published in September.  Together, the successes across the three directories place Appleby as the highest ranked law firm on the Isle of Man.

Sean Dowling, Managing Partner of Appleby (Isle of Man) LLC commented: “Recognition from these three independent directories, which take our peers and clients as their source, is always a great testament to our team.  We are immensely proud of all of the staff who were recognised, as well as the many faces working diligently to support them day in and day out.  In particular, to have held the top spot on the Island for five years shows the consistency and focus on service that we hold as core values here at Appleby.”
