LRI outstanding work and innovative model received a  high accolade at the prestigious Law Society Excellence Awards that took place in October 2017.

The law firm Simmons & Simmons, who has been one of our key supporters over the years – giving LRI office space for hosting the Situation Room and for its employees, and providing many hours of invaluable pro bono legal support  – was nominated for an award in the pro bono category. We were delighted to be chosen by them as showcase for this work. Although not the winners, being finalists was in itself a recognition for their exceptional contribution to pro bono work, as was their selection as one of the Law Society video case studies celebrating excellence in law, which you can watch here.
