Cartwright King Solicitors, a leading national law firm with offices in Manchester, Birmingham, and London, has been shortlisted for the prestigious Children’s Law Team of the Year Award at the upcoming Family Law Awards 2024. The nomination highlights the firm’s exceptional work in family law, specifically in cases related to children, and marks another milestone in its long-standing commitment to justice and client care.
The Family Law Awards, which have been running since 2011, are an annual celebration of excellence in family law and recognise the significant contribution of legal professionals in this vital area. The 2024 ceremony will take place on 20th November at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge in London. The event brings together some of the top family law practitioners in the country, providing a platform to celebrate achievements, share expertise, and network with industry leaders.
Abdul Hussain, CEO of Cartwright King Solicitors, expressed the firm’s pride in being shortlisted for the accolade. “We are incredibly honoured to receive this national nomination,” he said. “It is a privilege to stand alongside other talented and passionate nominees. This recognition is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our team, who work tirelessly to ensure that every client we represent receives the justice and care they deserve.”
The Children’s Law Team of the Year category acknowledges outstanding work by legal professionals who have made a significant impact in the area of children’s law. The judging panel, made up of leaders from the Family Law Bar Association, Resolution, the Association of Lawyers for Children, and the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives, along with editors from Family Law publications, selected the finalists after reviewing a record-breaking number of nominations this year.
The Family Law Awards not only recognise the achievements of individual firms but also serve as a reminder of the critical role family law plays in society. With more than 20 award categories, including Family Law Community Interaction and Family Law Innovation of the Year, the event has become a key date in the legal calendar. Previous winners of the Children’s Law Team of the Year include Sills & Betteridge in 2023 and joint winners 1GC Family Law and Bindmans in 2022.
