Newport-based law firm RDP Law has obtained a record number of rankings in The Legal 500 2022, the internationally recognised guide to the leading law firms within the United Kingdom.

The firm, which is a sponsor of the South Wales Argus Business Awards, has been identified as leaders in six highly competitive areas; Agriculture & Estates, Commercial Litigation, Property Litigation, Real Estate, Intellectual Property and IT & Telecoms.

Head of Agriculture and Private Client Sioned Thomas has once again been named as a Leading Individual in her area, achieving the accolade for the third year running.

Sioned said: “I am delighted to have been named a Leading Individual again this year and very proud of the team in achieving this number of rankings.”

Head of Real Estate James Davies secured listings for his work in Real Estate and Agriculture, with the Dispute Resolution team being ranked for its Property Litigation work for the first time. Huge achievements given the highly competitive nature of the categories.

RDP director James Davies said, “It’s very rewarding for the team to see its hard work rewarded by recognition in this way. The results also show the firm continuing to punch way above its weight in the Welsh legal market and continuing to develop its niche specialisms. We’ll look to build on this again, in the year ahead.”
