Wedlake Bell achieves outstanding results in Chambers High Net Worth 2026 rankings
Wedlake Bell is pleased to announce another exceptional set of results in the Chambers High Net Worth Guide 2026, reflecting the strength, depth and continued growth of its private client offering.
This year’s rankings saw 11 individual ranking promotions, five new individual rankings, two new team rankings, and one team ranking promotion. In total, the firm now holds 25 individual rankings and six team rankings across the guide.
Among this year’s standout achievements are the two new team rankings. We enter the guide in Band 3 for UK-Wide Family Offices and Funds Structuring, recognising the firm’s growing reputation for advising family offices, family investment structures and wealth-holding arrangements. Our Family team who focus on High Net Worth clients have also achieved a new ranking in Band 4 of Family/ Matrimonial Finance in the UK-Wide guide, reflecting the quality and breadth of their advice to clients navigating complex family matters and wealth-related disputes.
The firm has also celebrated a promotion, with our Real Estate: High Value Residential practice moving up to Band 2 in London, recognising the market-leading expertise in advising high-net-worth individuals and property investors on premium residential transactions and related matters.
In addition to these successes, Wedlake Bell continues to be recognised across a number of specialist practice areas. The firm has maintained its Band 1 national ranking for Art and Cultural Property Law, a Band 2 ranking for Private Wealth Law in London and a Band 3 ranking for Private Wealth Disputes in London. Our rankings across the Guide reinforce Wedlake Bell’s position as a leading adviser to high-net-worth individuals, families, trustees, family offices and business owners.
Martin Arnold, Managing Partner at Wedlake Bell, commented:
“Our 2026 Chambers HNW Guide results reflect the depth and breadth of expertise across Wedlake Bell. The needs of private individuals and families rarely sit within a single discipline, and one of our greatest strengths is our ability to draw on specialist knowledge from across the firm to advise on the full spectrum of our clients’ personal, family, business and investment interests. The addition of new rankings in Family Offices and Funds Structuring and Family and Matrimonial, together with the promotion of our High Value Residential Property practice and numerous individual ranking successes, is a testament to the quality of our people and the collaborative service we provide.”
