The winners of the awards will be announced at the annual awards ceremony which will take place on the 17th of February at the historic Crowne Plaza Royal Victoria Hotel, Sheffield.

Commenting on the news Banner Jones’ Chief Executive Simon Wright, said: “The Sheffield & District Law Society Awards are a firm favourite in our events calendar. The event provides a unique opportunity for the local legal community to get together to celebrate our successes, and we are absolutely thrilled to have been shortlisted in two of the team categories this year.

This is the second year in a row that the Banner Jones employment team – which prides itself on being able to offer high quality advice in a user-friendly, cost-effective manner to individuals, businesses and charities - has been shortlisted for the Employment Team of the Year Award, which it won in 2022.
