Congratulations to our Associate, Georgina Sarpong, who has been named a finalist for Rising Star of the Year – Private Practice at The British Legal Awards 2026.
The Rising Stars – Private Practice category recognises the most promising lawyers in private practice across the country. Georgina's place on this year's shortlist puts her alongside lawyers from some of the largest firms in the world, including Simmons & Simmons, Sullivan & Cromwell, Covington, Cooley and Sidley Austin. For a lawyer at a boutique immigration firm, that is an outstanding achievement.
