Family law team does it again!

Sills & Betteridge Family Lawyers are celebrating this week having won the prestigious and fiercely competitive Children Law Team of the Year national award at the Lexis Nexis Family Law Awards.

Launched 12 years ago, the event celebrates excellence in family law work and recognises its vital contribution to society.

The ceremony, which was held in London and hosted by TV star John Culshaw, saw the team shortlisted for 2 other categories – Financial Remedies Team of the Year and Region Family Law Firm of the Year in the Midlands & Wales.

Head of family law at the firm, Helen Derry said: “We have some extremely talented lawyers who work tirelessly to meet their clients’ needs, often influencing landmark changes in the law. I am delighted that their work has been recognised by such an esteemed panel of judges in a category of other highly respected family law practitioners.”

The results come in hot on the heels of the team’s recent Legal 500 legal directory rankings where they maintained their Top Tier status – the highest accolade a legal team can reach.
