The 2020 Women in Law Awards is a celebration of the exemplary work done by female lawyers and legal professionals across the country, helping shape the Australian legal marketplace in what has been a most turbulent and unpredictable year.

“Now, more than ever, it’s important to pay tribute to the professionals leading the way in all facets of the business of law,” said editor Emma Ryan.

“While this year’s Women in Law Awards will look a little different, the importance of the event has reached peak levels in 2020. There hasn’t been a role that hasn’t had to adapt to the pressures brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, with many forced to revamp how they go about fulfilling their duties on a day-to-day basis.

“It is our honour to be able to recognise those leading the way in this regard, while celebrating the longstanding achievements of all women that make up this valued profession.”

Female professionals in law can nominate, or be nominated across 31 separate individual and team categories, from BigLaw to the bar, in-house to sole practice, as well as various excellence categories including wellness, innovation and thought leadership.

Submissions are now open and will close on 16 October 2020. 

Don’t miss your chance to be part of a five-star industry celebration with fellow members of the legal community at what has become one of the legal profession’s most anticipated awards nights of the year!

Nominate an outstanding colleague for these awards now!
