This year our Annual Dinner and Awards Ceremony was held at the prestigious Ashmolean Museum in Oxford on Friday 14 October 2022, with renowned guest speaker David Alexander QC, Joint Head of Chambers at South Square.
One of our core aims is to promote legal excellence throughout our constituency. As part of that, our annual Legal Excellence Awards give individuals and legal teams the chance to highlight their business, their skill and their community contribution. They also give us the chance to celebrate the hard work and inspirational achievements across the legal profession in our region.
The Legal Excellence Awards celebrate some of the most outstanding talent and achievements in the legal profession in our three counties. The annual dinner and awards ceremony offers the opportunity to recognise and showcase the work and diversity of our profession in Berks, Bucks & Oxon, both in terms of the people involved and the work they undertake.
The categories for the awards are:
• Lawyer of the Year
• Junior Lawyer of the Year
• Pro Bono / Corporate Social Responsibility Award
• Solicitor-Advocate of the Year
• Law Firm of the Year
• Edward Pilling Award (a new award to be given to an outstanding sole practitioner)
