Triple Shortlisting at the Private Client Modern Law Awards 2026

Wilson Browne Solicitors is delighted to announce that we have been shortlisted in three prestigious categories at the Private Client Modern Law Awards 2026.

The firm has been recognised in the following categories:

• Private Client Team of the Year
• Court of Protection Team of the Year
• Private Client Lawyer of the Year – Shakira Khan

The Modern Law Awards celebrate excellence, innovation and outstanding client service across the legal profession, recognising the individuals and teams who consistently deliver exceptional results for their clients.

Being shortlisted in all three categories is a fantastic achievement and reflects the dedication, expertise and commitment shown by our Private Client and Court of Protection teams every day.

Recognition for Our Private Client Team

Our Private Client team advises individuals and families on a wide range of matters, including Wills, Trusts, Probate, Estate Administration, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Inheritance Tax planning. The team’s nomination for Private Client Team of the Year recognises not only their technical expertise but also the compassionate and client-focused approach they bring to every matter.

Excellence in Court of Protection

The firm’s specialist Court of Protection team has also been shortlisted for Court of Protection Team of the Year. The team supports vulnerable clients and their families with deputyship applications, ongoing deputyship management, statutory wills, personal injury trusts and a wide range of complex capacity-related matters.

This recognition highlights the team’s commitment to delivering practical, sensitive and high-quality legal support to those who need it most.

Individual Recognition for Shakira Khan

We are particularly proud to see Shakira Khan shortlisted for Private Client Lawyer of the Year.

Shakira is widely respected for her expertise, professionalism and dedication to her clients. Throughout her career, she has demonstrated a commitment to achieving the very best outcomes for individuals and families while providing clear, empathetic and practical advice during some of life’s most important and challenging moments.

Her nomination is a testament to the exceptional service she provides and the positive impact she continues to make for clients and colleagues alike.

A Team Achievement

These nominations reflect the hard work and dedication of our entire team and reinforce Wilson Browne’s commitment to delivering outstanding legal services across our Private Client and Court of Protection departments.
