On October 4, 2023, The Legal 500 published its UK Solicitors guide, which ranks leading lawyers and law firms across the United Kingdom. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati is recognized as a top law firm in the UK for venture capital.
The firm is noted for drawing upon the expertise of both U.S. and UK-qualified practitioners which has allowed it to gain a foothold in the London market among UK and European tech companies looking to expand and attract U.S. investors and others. Led by founding partner Dan Glazer, sources find "the team is almost uniquely qualified to work with private companies raising money with venture capital firms, especially those based in the U.S." and the "client-centric team has good market knowledge and experience."
In addition, London partner Fleur Benns is ranked as a recommended individual and considered a "next generation partner" in the Employee Share Schemes category. She has over 20 years of experience specializing in employee incentives and benefits, with a particular focus on the technology and life sciences sectors.
The Legal 500’s UK Solicitors guide provides researched coverage across the UK and reflects months of extensive analysis by the publication's research team, who conducted thousands of interviews within the market, with GCs, and reviewed countless submissions.
