Leading Hampshire law Phillips firm wins top award

Phillips Solicitors are thrilled to have been named Medium Law Firm of the Year in the 2021 Law Society Excellence Awards, the most prestigious awards ceremony for solicitors in England and Wales.

The Law Society is the professional body for solicitors which drives excellence in the profession and safeguards the rule of law.

Phillips Director Max Hope, based at the firm’s Town Gate offices, in London Street, Basingstoke, said that it is a great honour for the firm to be recognised by The Law Society, for providing outstanding legal services.

He said: “We’d like to say a heartfelt thank you to all our clients and referrers for placing their trust in us to deliver the level of service they have rightly come to expect.”

“This award would not have been possible without that trust and the very positive feedback that our clients kindly passed on to The Law Society in support of our nomination.”

Phillips Director Jack Gardener said: “The award is a huge achievement for our firm which shows that we are doing the right things and going in the right direction with our ambitious growth plans, and the unrivalled way we invest in our community. Most importantly, this is an award that recognises the hard work and dedication of every member of our team.”

This year the awards ceremony took place virtually and was hosted by comedian Jo Caulfield, who highlighted a number of the initiatives Phillips have implemented for the wellbeing of their staff, including its pioneering policy of offering funding and support for IVF treatment. Phillips were also praised for their financial stability whilst navigating the challenges of the pandemic. ■
