The Legal 500 UK Awards shortlist for 2014 has been announced and we are delighted to have received 5 nominations.

As a set we have been nominated for Chambers of the year for Private client: trusts and probate, and four members have been nominated for individual awards: Alan Boyle QC and John Machell QC as Silk of the year in Private client: trusts and probate; Philip Jones QC as Silk of the year for Insolvency; and Philip Marshall QC as Silk of the year in Commercial litigation.

“The Legal 500 Awards is a brand new concept in the crowded legal awards market, by rewarding law firms/sets and in-house teams equally, and bringing the cream of the profession together for exclusive networking dinners. The awards are based on the opinions of the 250,000 in-house lawyers we contact throughout the year, and the in-depth research that our team conducts into law firms.”
