Gowling WLG and CMS held the most FTSE 100 clients for the final quarter of this year, data has shown.
Data from Adviser Rankings for Q4 2019 shows CMS lost one client, allowing Gowling to take a share of the lead for the quarter. Both firms held seven clients apiece during the period.
Meanwhile, Norton Rose Fulbright moved up into joint third position for FTSE 100 clients, from fourth place, alongside Pinsent Masons.
Pinsent Masons corporate partner Jon Harris told Legal Week that while there are many opportunities in M&A and secondary fundraisings, the main IPO market is currently "very challenging".
He added: "I am confident that the IPO market will improve once the political situation has stabilised."
Fieldfisher also performed well, adding the most AIM-ranked clients during the quarter. The firm added three to its cache.
Firms listed have won a host of mandates this year.
CMS was appointed to WeWork's first ever EMEA panel and Aviva's Group and Investor legal panels.
