The legal profession came together last night to celebrate the efforts of the country’s top trainee-rated firms and chambers at Legal Cheek‘s annual awards ceremony.
This year’s Legal Cheek Awards, sponsored by BARBRI and BPP University Law School, was held at The Banking Hall in the City of London.
Three-hundred guests from the UK’s leading law firms and barristers’ chambers joined social media stars and big industry names at the glitzy ceremony.
Following a reception of fizz and canapés, BARBRI managing director Lucie Allen and BPP deputy dean Jane Houston delivered welcome addresses.
Legal Cheek editor and Awards host Tom Connelly was then joined by award sponsors and Legal Cheek student campus ambassadors and staff to announce the winners of the 25 categories making up this year’s ceremony.
The Attorney General for England and Wales Victoria Prentis KC MP and Law Society President Lubna Shuja made special guest appearances to present the winners of categories Best Journal Contribution and Most Admired Law Firm with their prizes.
The winners are based on the results of our annual survey of over 2,000 trainee and junior lawyers.
