Coodes shortlisted for Law Firm of the Year 

Tue 17th Mar 2026

Coodes Solicitors has been shortlisted in the South West Residential Property Awards 2026, organised by Insider Media, in the Law Firm of the Year category. This recognition reflects a year of exceptional performance from a team operating at the highest level across some of the region’s most complex property transactions. 

The awards celebrate the best of the South West’s property industry and the shortlisting places Coodes alongside the leading firms in the region during a qualifying period marked by economic uncertainty, fluctuating interest rates and increased transaction volatility.  

Against that backdrop, the Coodes property teams delivered sustained growth, contributing over one third of the firm’s overall turnover, whilst maintaining the quality of client service that has become a hallmark of the firm. 

The past year has seen the team handle a range of high-value, technically demanding matters that demonstrate genuine depth of expertise, including a £2 million property transaction involving three separate Land Registry titles and complex easements affecting access, water and drainage; all resolved with the clarity that protects clients from future disputes.  

The team also advised on numerous commercial repurposing projects, including the acquisition of a renowned hotel that required navigation of restrictive covenants, overage and layered funding structures, before going on to support the developer through to commencing successful plot sales. 

Jo Morgan, Head of the Commercial Property team at Coodes Solicitors, commented: “This shortlisting is a real testament to what our Residential and Commercial property teams have achieved together over the past year, delivering outstanding results on some genuinely complex and high-value transactions. 

“Our consistent growth, operational improvements and unwavering commitment to client care have already made 2026 a standout year for our Property practice. The chance to be announced Law firm of the Year on the night would be the icing on the cake. 

“What makes these teams special is not just what they achieve, but how they achieve it. They combine genuine expertise and commercial thinking in every instruction, however straightforward or complex, always acting with a real commitment to the people they work with; clients and colleagues. 

“This unique combination of technical ability, care and ambition is what Coodes is built on, and it is what we believe makes us worthy of this recognition.” 

Coodes is recognised in the Legal 500 2025 edition as a leading firm for commercial property in the South West, with the team described as ‘one to watch’. 

The Insider Media South West Residential Property Awards 2026 ceremony will take place on Thursday 23rd April at the Bristol Grand Hotel. For more information about Coodes’ Residential or Commercial property services, please visit coodes.co.uk or call 0800 328 3282.
