Gold Jennings Highly Commended at Law Society’s Excellence Awards

We are extremely pleased to be Highly Commended by the Law Society’s 2021 Excellence Awards in the Excellence in Access to Justice and Small Firm of the Year categories.

The Law Society referred to our “outstanding work on judicial review test cases to secure the rights of some of the most marginalised people in society” including our work in establishing entitlement to free school meals for children from migrant backgrounds and last year’s High Court ruling that asylum seekers were unlawfully accommodated at the Napier Barracks.

This is a tremendous honour, especially given the high caliber of all those shortlisted, and caps off a wonderful year in which our firm’s public law team also won Legal Aid Team of the Year award at the Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards.

A huge thank you goes out to all who supported our nominations.
