The listings contain the great, the good and the gifted, The Lawyer Hot 100 2011 is full of creative and innovative lawyers who have made a real difference in a challenging environment.
"When it comes to media law only a handful of lawyers stand out from the crowd, but ahead of that elite group is Schillings partner Rachel Atkins. She has long been a lawyer to the rich and famous, but it is her tenacious and commercial mind which keeps clients coming back and has helped her grow a strong, broad practice which spans private client, defamation and family proceedings.
It is no mean feat that she managed to win an apology from RyanAir chief executive Michael O'Leary for easyGroup chief Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou but it does demonstrate Atkins' innovative thinking in a practice area where words speak louder than money."
Rachel has previously been listed as The Times Lawyer of the Week in July 2009.
