Rebecca Hawley, a former College of Law student, has been recognised for her outstanding performance in family law by receiving the inaugural Peter Clark Prize sponsored by Dawson Cornwell.

Rebecca, who studied at the College’s London Bloomsbury centre, was presented with the £2,000 award at the firm’s Holborn office, London.

The prize also includes a two-week internship at Dawson Cornwell and is awarded to the student with the highest mark in family law on the Legal Practice Course (LPC) from The College of Law’s London centres. The award was established in honour of Peter Clark, a partner at Dawson Cornwell from 1993 until his death in April 2010.
