GA Solicitors ‘Ranked Best in Plymouth’ by Chambers High Net Worth Guide

GA Solicitors’ private client team has once again secured top rankings in the esteemed legal directory, Chambers High Net Worth (HNW) Guide 2025. The department (known internally as wills, trusts and probate) is officially ranked as the only Band 1 law firm in Plymouth in the “Private Wealth Law” category – affirming its position as the city’s leading legal adviser in this specialist area.
Wills, trusts, and probate partners Jonathan Hall and Matthew Rose have also been individually recognised in Chambers HNW as the foremost experts in private wealth advice. This marks the ninth consecutive year that both have been named in the guide and highlighted as leaders in this field of law.
How does Chambers High Net Worth Rank law firms?
Chambers High Net Worth’s ranking process is based on rigorous independent research, which is conducted annually from August through to April each year. It includes in-depth interviews with over 1,400 law firms and is supported by peer reviews, market reputation, and other independent data sources and client feedback.
What did Chambers HNW say about GA Solicitors?
Researchers for the 2025 edition noted that Matthew Rose was “efficient, technically excellent and provides a very high level of service. Matthew always offers sound advice in a way that is understandable to clients at what is inevitably a very difficult time for them”.
It was also highlighted within the scope of the research that Jonathan Hall provided a “very personable and knowledgeable” approach.
Importantly, and building on the firm’s reputation as a leader in client service, Chambers also highlighted the firm’s “ability to explain the complexities of trusts, probate, wills and lasting power of attorney to clients in a clear and concise way” that was “unmatched”.
What does this ranking mean to GA Solicitors in Plymouth?
Jonathan Hall, head of the private client team at GA Solicitors and band one-ranked solicitor in the guide, commented: “Being recognised once again by Chambers High Net Worth is not only an honour, it is a clear reflection of the trust our clients place in us and the consistently high standards we uphold. Thank you to our clients and referrers for choosing us and for providing such positive feedback.
“I would also like to say a huge congratulations to Matthew, and to the entire wills, trusts and probate team who work hard each day to put clients’ needs first and ensure we are constantly offering the best levels of both service and legal advice.”
