Legal Awards 2011


Welcome to the Legal Awards 2011 edition of Lawyer Monthly. Within this issue you will find the details of all of the Lawyer Monthly Legal Awards 2011 winners.


The awards recognise the achievements of those law firms and individuals who have engaged and responded most successfully to the demands being placed on them in the new post- recession business environment and the recent global economic turmoil. The awards are divided into individual and firm categories and have been carefully chosen to reflect the range of practice areas and skills that lie at the heart of the successful law firm or legal department.


The voting criteria for these awards were strict, and several points were considered during the process of determining the finalists and eventual winners. For example, we took in to account the number of nominations received, the supporting material provided, including covering statements and evidence supplied, as well as the amount of documented activity in the last 12 months when compared to industry peers. We also looked at the entrants’ recognised legal expertise (by peer group), displays of innovation in client care and the size (value) of previous involvement within transactions, deals and cases.


The category list for the awards was extensive, covering the majority of practice areas, sectors and regions, and the votes were cast by the toughest of critics – industry peers. We would also like to thank our partners, Noble Legal, who have worked with us to make these awards possible. Finally, we hope you enjoy this special Legal Awards 2011 edition of Lawyer Monthly and we would like to congratulate all of our winners once more.
