Our excellent life sciences team won another award last night. The British Legal Awards, organised by Legal Week and hosted by Sir Trevor McDonald OBE, shone a light on the best of private practice and in-house legal communities.

Head of the commercial IP team and one of The Lawyer Hot 100 2021, Matthew Warren, accompanied by senior associate Ellen Lambrix, and associate Erik Muursepp received the award for Life Sciences Team of the year for their work with Oxford University.

The team’s work was described as a “game changer” and one of “truly global importance” by the judges, who this year received “a record-breaking number of submissions”.
