We are delighted to announce Drummond Miller's results in the Chambers UK Guide 2027. All three of our firm rankings have been retained, and this year brings further recognition for our people, including a first-time ranking, a move up the tables and a Senior Statespeople listing for one of our longest-serving partners.
These results reflect the care and expertise our teams bring to every case, supporting clients through some of the most difficult moments in their lives.
Our Firm Rankings
Drummond Miller has held its position across each of our ranked practice areas:
Clinical Negligence: Mainly Claimant - Band 1
Immigration - Band 1
Civil Liberties & Human Rights - Band 2
Keeping our Band 1 status in two areas where clients often come to us at very difficult times is something our teams are rightly proud of.

Our Clinical Negligence team continues to be ranked in the top band, with five partners individually recognised this year.
- Liesa Spiller, Partner and Head of Medical Negligence and Litigation, is now listed among Chambers' Senior Statespeople.

- Carrie Burrows, Partner, remains Up and Coming, reflecting the steady progress she continues to make for her clients.
