3PB Family Clerks win the family law community vote at the 2020 Family Law Awards

25th November 2020

Rob Leonard, Ian Charlton and the 3PB family team clerks came out top in the public vote at this year’s Clerking Team of the Year at the prestigious Family Law Awards.  Held remotely for the first time in its ten year history, the two practice directors for the 70-strong team of family barristers were quick to thank all those who propelled them to victory this year, after missing out last year as one of the shortlisted chambers in this category.

The judges said of 3PB : “The winning team is commended for consistently providing some of the best clerking in the country. They stood out for responding to the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis with an unswerving focus on supporting colleagues and clients as they seek to manage their personal and professional lives throughout the lockdown period. A series of initiatives around wellbeing issues along with supporting professionals in their working practices showed the family clerks' dedication to their clients and members throughout.”

Vanessa Meachin QC, Head of 3PB’s Family team, said of the award: “ This is brilliant news and richly deserved by our family clerking team. We are all thrilled that our great clerks here have been justly recognised for their great skills and success in helping clients and barristers alike.”
