It is a real honour for me not only to be nominated but to win this award. But I don’t regard myself as better than my colleagues – I simply work hard and always put the interests of the client first”

Former Senior Partner Michael Gurd says “We are all delighted that Jane has received this national award. It is a true reflection of her dedication and hard work and is so richly deserved. She is a great credit to this firm and the legal profession in general”
