Held at the iconic Grosvenor House Hotel in London, the event brought together over 1,000 guests from across the legal profession to honour the standout achievements of the year – from groundbreaking litigation and transformative in-house teams to innovation in legal tech and leadership in ESG.
Hosted by award-winning comedian Katherine Ryan, the evening was a celebration of ambition, creativity and impact across 26 categories spanning private practice, in-house counsel and the Bar. The awards are widely regarded as one of the most prestigious events in the legal calendar, with winners selected by a panel of over 30 senior legal professionals and industry leaders.
A particular highlight for Kindleworth was seeing our client Angeli Arora and her firm Allectustake home the Boutique Law Firm of the Year award. Having launched just two years ago, Allectus has already made a remarkable impact in the market, a testament to Angeli’s vision, drive and commitment to excellence.
“Thank you to Kindleworth for your critical role in our journey. You have created something truly transformative and empowering for those lawyers looking to launch a law firm.” said Angeli Arora.
“It was a true privilege to hand this award to Angeli personally,” said James Hacking, Kindleworth Co-Founder. “Angeli represents everything Kindleworth stands for: ambition, clarity of purpose and the courage to build something extraordinary.”
Kindleworth also congratulates American Express, winner of the Legal Technology Team of the Year award, for its pioneering work in digital transformation and legal operations, and all 2025 winners and finalists for their fantastic achievements.
