We are pleased to have been recognised for Excellence in Client Service at The Lawyer Awards, in recognition of our Legal Project Management (LPM) team’s work on the UK Covid-19 Public Inquiry.

The Inquiry faced the challenge of rapidly mobilising multiple legal workstreams and coordinating consistent ways of working across hundreds of lawyers, counsel and Secretariat staff. Drawing on our experience advising on high-profile public inquiries, our LPM team supported the Inquiry through a collaborative model, embedding capability and shared ownership across Planning, Legal Operations and Secretariat leadership.

The award reflects the firm’s continued focus on delivering a high-quality, consistent client experience and building long-term relationships through a collaborative, sector-informed approach.

We’re delighted to have received this award and incredibly proud of the team behind it. Congratulations to everyone involved in supporting the Inquiry – it was a truly collaborative effort. Recognition on the night is a reflection of the commitment, care and expertise across the team.

Charlotte Whitaker, Partner
