Press Release: Aberdein Considine named as the UK’s Best Law Firm

Aberdein Considine has been named as the UK’s Best Law Firm at a leading mortgage industry awards ceremony in London.

The firm beat off challenges from dozens of rivals to pick up the prestigious title at the Mortgage Finance Gazette Awards in London this evening (Wednesday, November 18).

A panel of experts comprising key senior decision makers in banks, building societies and other lenders said Aberdein Considine “stood out from the crowd” thanks to the unique way it deals with debt recovery work for the UK’s biggest banks and financial institutions.

Rob Aberdein, Partner in charge of Debt Recovery at the firm, said the award was a “huge accolade”.

“To be recognised as a British legal leader is an enormous boon for us and I am delighted for all of our staff, whose hard work made this happen,” he said.

“We have acted for lenders for three decades now and we are extremely proud of the strong relationship we have cultivated with many in the industry. These relationships are built on trust, mutual understanding and, ultimately, performance, which is what I put this award down to.

“We are particularly pleased that the researchers picked up on the regulatory advice we compliment our debt recovery service with.

“This is something we have invested in heavily over the past few years and a service which has become invaluable to a number of our larger clients in the banking sector.”

Mortgage Finance Gazette magazine has been the market-leading publication for the mortgage lending industry for over 140 years.

The award win comes just weeks after the Legal 500 named Aberdein Considine as a Top Tier firm in the field of Debt Recovery.

The guide, which has been published for over two decades, is highly regarded by lawyers and clients alike due to its independent research-based assessment of law firm and lawyer capabilities.

In it, Aberdein Considine is described as “one of Scotland’s fastest growing law firms”.

The firm now has 300 partners and staff spread across Scotland, including the key legal cities of Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth and Stirling.
