LexisNexis Legal Awards 2026—enter now!

Entries are now open for the 2026 LexisNexis Legal Awards, celebrating achievement and innovation in the law across 24 categories

And don’t wait too long to enter or nominate—entries, including supporting evidence and up to 750 words, must be in by 5 December 2025.

It’s a great way to mark the year’s cases, campaigns and hard work. This year’s categories include the prestigious Halsbury Award for Rule of Law, which honours an individual or organisation’s contribution to the rule of law, and the lifetime contribution award.

There are awards for business development, chambers, law firm, costs law team, case of the year, trainee scheme, customer focus, in-house team, pro bono and more.

NLJ readers can join in with the judging by voting for the legal personality of the year, choosing from a shortlist to be circulated at a later stage.

The winners will be announced on 16 April at a ceremony at the Park Plaza London Riverbank. Find out more, and submit entries, here.
