The UK Law Firm of the Year award, sponsored by Lamb & Brandformula, went to Shoosmiths after a hugely successful 2014-15 financial year in which the firm recorded an impressive 44% hike in profits per equity partner alongside a solid revenue rise of 10%.
Recent highlights for the firm have included a reappointment to the Mercedes-Benz UK panel, as well as securing a role to advise Hitachi Rail Europe on a £4.5bn contract to build and service new trains for the next 30 years.
