Thrings doubles presence in Chambers’ High Net Worth rankings

Law firm Thrings has advanced its position in this year’s Chambers and Partners High Net Worth Guide.

In the 2025 guide every one of the firm’s rankings has improved, with more teams and individual lawyers making the cut to be featured alongside their peers, doubling the number of rankings last year.

This includes the firm’s private client team in Bath, who not only retain their place in the rankings for Private Wealth Law in Somerset but have been placed in Band 1 – the highest rank available in the guide – being recognised by Chambers for their “thorough knowledge and understanding” and “caring passion”.

New to the rankings this year is the firm’s private wealth disputes team, who are ranked in Band 3 in the South West, being acknowledged for their “calm and measured approach” and “great empathy with clients”.

The team’s head, Emily Prout, also enters the ranking for the first time, going straight in at Band 2 with clients having praised her “supremely professional” guidance and knowledge of the law as well as being “personable and a pleasure to deal with”.

The incredible strength in depth of the private wealth disputes team is also showcased with the inclusion of the “no-nonsense and very practical” Georgia Wookey in the rankings, who retains her “Associate to Watch” ranking, with clients saying they would “have no hesitation” in referring someone to Georgia, crediting to her “emotional intelligence”, “knowledge and experience”.

Meanwhile, Jayne Kemsley, London-based partner in the residential property team, advances in the High Value Residential Real Estate rankings from Band 4 to Band 3.

This was supported by the feedback from clients on her providing “a highly efficient, proactive, customer-focused service, with great integrity, providing an ideal balance of speed of transaction with protection of clients’ interests”.

Completing the firm, Penelope Munro, partner in the firm’s private client team, maintains her place in the guide, moving up to Band 2.

The Chambers High Net Worth Guide differentiates the best professional advisers for international private wealth, providing an objective view by identifying and ranking law firms, lawyers and a range of other professional advisers globally.

Welcoming the rankings, Thrings’ managing partner Simon Holdsworth said: “I’m incredibly proud to see colleagues recognised so prominently in this year’s High Net Worth Guide.

“It’s a testament to their hard work and dedication and I’m delighted to see their efforts being acknowledged.

“With Chambers’ rankings fuelled by the feedback of clients, it is brilliant to know they value the work we do for them and doubling our rankings reflects not just the depth of expertise across the firm, but also our continued commitment to delivering an exceptional client-focused service.”
