Brodies managing partner, Nick Scott, said: “Reflecting on the awards we have received, I must thank our clients for continuing to trust us with their instructions. We take confidence from their ambition, and are encouraged that many clients have been able to see opportunity and act on that. We look forward to continuing to work with, and support, them on their deals and transactions.

“To be recognised in the inclusion and diversity category is testament to the commitment of all our colleagues to foster an inclusive workplace, increase the diversity of our workforce and create safe places for people with difference. We will continue to shape our plans and policies with high regard to the areas of diversity that matter to them.”
