NewLaw managing partner Helen Molyneux has been acclaimed the Welsh Woman of the Year.

The award comes from the Welsh Women Mean Business organisation. It recognises and celebrates women who have shown extraordinary creativity, determination, dedication, courage and entrepreneurial skills. 

The awards drew 32 entrants, who then competed in one of 12 categories. Helen won her category of Best Woman in a Legal Business and then went on to win the overall accolade of Welsh Woman of the Year.

NewLaw’s extraordinary success is based on an idea by Helen, who has set up what is probably a unique business model in the legal world. It specialises in business law, wealth management and personal injury claims, of which it manages over 30,000 each year.
