Brodies picks up another UK award

Brodies, the biggest Scottish-based legal firm, has won another UK award.

This week the practice was named UK National/Regional Law Firm of the Year at the Legal Business Awards in London, hosted by Legal Business magazine. The judges cited Brodies for having “taken the Scottish market by storm”, its strong strategic management and sustained financial growth, "with revenue growing organically by 33% as turnover passed £50m, making it the largest independent Scottish firm by revenue". Over the past 10 years, Brodies has increased its turnover by 214%.

The awards were judged on the basis of research carried out by Legal Business, Legal 500 and independent experts into the quality of legal services, sustained growth and new business wins.

Managing partner Bill Drummond was a finalist in the UK Management Partner of the Year category, a title he won at the 2013 Awards.

Mr Drummond commented: “We are pleased to be singled out by our peers in the legal profession for such a prestigious award, which reflects the hard work and commitment of everybody at Brodies and the continued support of our clients.”
