Recognition reflects global client impact and strategic innovation in energy, real estate, and finance law
Global legal publisher Thomson Reuters has named seven attorneys from U.K.-based law firm TLT LLP to its prestigious “Stand-Out Lawyers 2025” list, based on direct client feedback across major practice areas. This annual distinction recognizes lawyers worldwide for consistently exceeding client expectations through technical expertise, commercial insight, and leadership.
The honorees span key sectors—including finance, energy, ESG compliance, and real estate—showcasing TLT’s increasingly international influence in complex legal matters. Among those recognized are partners who led cross-border M&A deals, structured global ESG frameworks, and advised on major real estate technology investments.
Client-Driven Recognition
Thomson Reuters compiles the Stand-Out list based on confidential client interviews as part of its Sharplegal survey. Lawyers are nominated for their responsiveness, problem-solving ability, and ability to deliver high-impact legal solutions.
In 2025, TLT’s honorees include:
-
Jane Whitlock, Partner – Energy & Renewables, cited for guiding multi-national utility clients through carbon transition laws.
-
Daniel Lee, Head of Finance, recognized for capital markets restructuring and post-pandemic regulatory adaptation.

“We’re honored to have so many of our professionals recognized,” said TLT Managing Partner John Wood. “It reflects our firm’s ethos of collaboration, sustainability, and relentless client focus.”
Firm Growth and Industry Recognition
TLT’s recognition is particularly notable as the firm continues to expand its international presence, including advising U.S.-based clients on climate risk disclosures and sustainable investment strategies. Over the past year, TLT has been involved in transactions exceeding £2 billion in combined deal value, with clients spanning banking, tech, and infrastructure sectors.
The firm was also recently shortlisted for the 2025 Legal Innovation Awards in London, reflecting its growing influence in legal tech integration and ESG compliance models.
For attorneys, inclusion on the Stand-Out list is not just a professional honor—it serves as market validation of legal leadership, particularly in sectors undergoing rapid regulatory and technological transformation.
