Thackray Williams award success

Katie Martin was named Best Paralegal at the Private Client Modern Law Awards, while Jimmy Griffin won the Rising Star title of the Apartment Advisor Awards. 

“It has been a huge honour to win the award for Paralegal of the year in the Private Client space at this national event. It is testament to the quality of the work I am happy to undertake, and the collegiate and supportive working environment I enjoy at Thackray Williams. Although it is a personal award it says much about the department and the wider firm that we regularly compete at this level,” commented Katie. 

“I am delighted to have received this prestigious award. It is a real reflection of the support, hard work, and collaboration within the Leasehold Team at Thackray Williams. It’s a great reminder of what can be achieved when part of a strong and focused team. Thank you to everyone within the department for their assistance throughout,” commented Jimmy. 

The Leasehold Team collectively made the shortcut for both Solicitors Firm of the Year and Conveyancing Firm of the Year in the Apartment Advisor Awards.

The Private Client team were also finalists for both the Wills & Probate (16+ solicitors) and the Tax & Trusts categories of the Private Client Modern Law Awards, while Nima Stepney made the shortlist for Lawyer of the Year, Tax & Trusts. 

Katie’s success follows Nicola Huseyin being named Best Private Client Legal Assistant at the British Wills & Probate Awards 2024 for her inspiring leadership of the seven legal assistants in the department.
