Family Law Awards 2019: entries open

Date:3 APR 2019

Entries are now open for the 9th annual Family Law Awards. Since launching in 2011, the awards have firmly established themselves as a key date in the family law calendar, celebrating the successes and achievements of family lawyers and the vital contribution that they make to society.

The 2019 ceremony will take place on Wednesday 27 November at the Ballroom South Bank, London. The shortlist and winners will once again be chosen by a judging panel made up of the heads of the Family Law Bar Association, Resolution and the Association of Lawyers for Children, along with Family Law editors and publishing executives.

This year we will be introducing two new awards categories – Family Law Innovation of the Year and Family Law Dispute Resolution Team of the Year.

In keeping with tradition, three of this year's Awards will be voted for by the family law community (Clerking Team, Legal Executive, and Commentator Awards). A shortlist of four nominees will be selected by LexisNexis from the nominations received and voting will open on the Family Law Awards website in September.

See the full list of awards, the criteria and submit your entries before midday Friday 7 June at: www.familylawawards.com
