The firm was recently awarded the Law Society Excellence Award for developing a strong, international presence and encouraging international investment in the UK by way of the AIM market. Cobbetts is internationally recognised for its experience and knowledge in guiding companies thorough the process and achieving a quicker and better result in bringing companies to market. 

 

Our team is one of the UK’s leading legal advisers to the AIM market and we have developed particular expertise in the international minerals sector.  Our success to us being named as the UK’s fastest growing AIM legal adviser by number of clients. The ranking, by Hemscott, came after we secured six new AIM clients in the first quarter of 2008 – more than any other UK law firm.*
