Recognising the expertise of the firm’s Private Wealth team, Burges Salmon has been shortlisted as ‘Law Firm of the Year – London’ in the 2020 Magic Circle Awards. The event celebrates the best advisers and managers in the private wealth sector across the world with the shortlist decided by a judging panel of ten global industry experts.
The firm has also made the shortlist for ‘Company of the Year - Female Leadership (Large, Institutional)’ in the Powerwomen Awards, highlighting its commitment to supporting diversity and the female leaders of today and tomorrow. The annual event, now in its seventh year, aims to create a platform for best practice and positive social influence.
Burges Salmon partner Beatrice Puoti, who heads the firm’s Private Wealth team, says: “Our nominations for London Law Firm of the Year and Company of the Year for female leadership recognise the firm’s far-reaching legal expertise in the sector and our well-established reputation amongst our strong client base in the capital, along with the emphasis we place on championing women in wealth.”
Citywealth will host gala dinners to celebrate the winners of both awards programmes, in March for the Powerwomen Awards and in May for the Magic Circle Awards.
