“This is the third year in a row that both our conveyancing and employment law teams have been shortlisted for awards, and that really is testament to the hard work and dedication of every member of our team.

“Lauren also deserves particular recognition for her nomination in the Rising Star category. She has led on several complex cases since qualifying just a few years ago and has already supported over a hundred family law clients at what is often a difficult time in their lives.

“The event itself remains a firm favourite in our events calendar, and we are looking forward to once again being able to celebrate the achievements of the local legal community with our colleagues from across the industry.”
