Waller, of Coram Chambers, retired in February after a 26-year judicial career as Senior District Judge, Family Division, and as a Circuit Judge. Coram’s Alex Laing and Rachel Cooper also won Junior Barrister and Young Barrister, respectively.
The family law community voted for the winners in three categories: Frances Edwards, Caswell Jones (Chartered Legal Executive); Sarah Phillimore, St John’s (Commentator); and 3PB (Clerking Team), who were commended for ‘responding to the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis with an unswerving focus on supporting colleagues and clients’.
Andy Sparkes, director of legal markets, LexisNexis, said: ‘Looking after the vulnerable, protecting children and bringing legal justice to those in need is one of the unspoken chapters of this pandemic.’
The winners were announced last week at a virtual ceremony attended by more than 500 guests. View the full results at: bit.ly/33zGu5b.
