Spire Solicitors has scooped the coveted Law Firm of the Year Award at the 2017 LawNet Awards, held at the Crowne Plaza, Heythrop Park Resort, Oxfordshire in front of 210 employees from some of the nations most recognised firms under LawNet.
The Law Firm of the Year award, sponsored by Wilkinson Read & Partners recognises firms who provide a clear, strategic business growth plan and provide proof of sustainable improvements in financial performance, as well as above all, dedication to their market.
Other aspirants for the award included, Biscoes Law Limited, and last year’s winners, Gardner Leader LLP.
James Knight, CEO, commented: “Spire is thrilled to have been recognised as leaders in the LawNet market, continuing our strategic and clear growth since our initial merger in 2013. The past 4 years since Spire was born have now shown award recognised progression, as well as, market success, entirely down to the level of service our firm and all within offer.
Knight continued: “I could write this success is down to multiple factors which you see from other firms, such as infinite events throughout the year, blanket marketing and standard practices; however, this isn’t what we do. We’re fully committed to offering the best service possible as well as striving to be different; meaning our organic growth in the UK market is down to the success of our dedicated 170 strong staff, which all hold the same vision, changing the perspective of Legal-as-a-Service.”
Spire Solicitors has held yet another fantastic year with the recent additions to the team, including Corporate Finance Expert, Matthew Downing, who joined the firm as Partner, previously Head of Corporate & Commercial at Ashtons Legal, who were shortlisted for two awards at this year’s ceremony.
Spire would like to extend their congratulations to other winners and shortlisted firms at the awards dinner.
After the successful merger of Hood Vores & Allwood Solicitors, Greenland Houchen Pomeroy Solicitors and Overbury Steward & Eaton Solicitors in 2013, Spire Solicitors LLP now represents one of the largest, and most progressive legal firms in Norfolk, with a presence of 8 offices across the county and over 170 employees, as well as a portfolio of services for all.
