The nomination for Large Law Firm of the Year recognises the firm‚Äôs rapid growth in Manchester in the last year, including six partner hires. The judges also praised TLT‚Äôs wellbeing and equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives, including its Women‚Äôs Network and focus on social mobility. 

The nomination for Employment Team of the Year recognises the team‚Äôs successful work for its clients, including a proactive and innovative approach and exceptional advice and expertise that is helping to manage risk and drive business success.
