Pump Court Chambers is delighted to announce that our Senior Family Clerk, Sean Gentleman has been shortlisted for the Clerk of the Year Award at the forthcoming Legal 500 UK Bar Awards 2020.

Over 70,000 interviews with in-house counsel, law firms and sets in the UK took place to pin-point the most capable, expert practitioners and chambers operating at the top of their game across a number of different business sectors. The awards are unique in the legal industry as they recognise each element of the profession equally, representing the very best law firms, chambers, barristers, in-house lawyers, business leaders and general counsel operating within the UK market.

Our Senior Clerk, Tony Atkins said: “This really is an outstanding achievement and one Sean should be extremely proud of. Sean’s nomination is rather timely as we shall be attending the family law awards this evening where we have also been shortlisted for clerking team of the year and Chambers of the year. This really is a momentous year for the team and I am very much looking forward to celebrating our hat-trick of short-listings this evening with Sean and the team”.
