Lawyers Weekly’s Women in Law Awards recognise and reward women who have challenged, inspired, influenced or otherwise enhanced the practice of law in Australia.

In signing up as principal partner of this year’s event, for the second year running, Taylor Root has demonstrated commitment to recognising excellence among female legal practitioners. 

“We at Taylor Root are extremely proud to be Principal Partner of The Women in Law Awards again,” said Tim Fogarty, partner at Taylor Root.

“The event is a terrific opportunity to proactively and publicly recognise excellence within the legal industry. The stellar contributions made by women in law are clearly worthy of acknowledgement. This event provides an ideal platform to highlight this input and achievement nationally.

“At Taylor Root, we interact with outstanding women on a daily basis. We are invested in their careers and professional development and so partnering with Lawyers Weekly in relation to this event is a natural fit for us.”

Some of the noteworthy categories include Barrister of the Year, Dealmaker of the Year, Diversity Law Firm of the Year, Executive of the Year, General Counsel of the Year and HR Professional of the Year.
