In the inaugural awards
Harkin Lloyd won the prestigious award held at a ceremony at the
Legal Awards Dinner in Liverpool.
The awards were voted
by their contemporary solicitors after a shortlist was compiled
by leading legal and business professionals.
The law firm of the
year category had two other competitors: Brabners Chaffe Street
who were named as one of the UK’s best companies in the Sunday
Times Best 100 companies to work for Awards 2007 and DLA Piper
UK LLP, a large commercial firm with over 34 International
offices.
The Law Firm of the
year award ultimately went to the two partner practice run by
Jean Harkin and Rachel Lloyd.
Rachel Lloyd, 'It was a
real David and Goliath scenario with our competitors each
established many many years ago with million pound turnovers and
our small specialist firm.'
Jean Harkin, 'It was
good to see that the legal profession recognised the important
work we carry out, in particular for our clients that have been
exposed to asbestos.'
