Nick Levett awarded Chambers’ Professional of the Year at the Advocate Bar Pro Bono Awards 2020

We are delighted to announce that Nick Levett was awarded Chambers’ Professional of the Year at the Advocate Bar Pro Bono Awards 2020 by Chair of the Bar, Amanda Pinto QC.

This Chambers’ Professional of the Year Award recognises the crucial role played by chambers’ staff in championing
access to justice through pro bono. It is awarded to a member of chambers staff who has demonstrably championed pro bono work over the last year and effectively channels pro bono resources to help those who require legal help to receive assistance
from legal professionals.

Nick has championed Pro Bono work for many years and he treats Pro Bono instructions in exactly the same way as any other work that comes in. His support for Pro Bono work has benefitted clients and counsel alike. He ensures that pro bono clients receive the same level of service from chambers, including the careful selection of counsel for each matter. In addition, he arranges for the barristers doing the work to receive the same level of support from chambers.

Nick has a real commitment to pro bono work as clearly demonstrated by his work with Advocate, by his coordinating role for Chambers’ participation in ELAAS in the EAT and ELIPS in the ET, and his involvement with FRU, including our ongoing FRUpillage.

Chief Executive, Rebecca Priestley, commented:

“Nick has been a fantastic champion for pro bono work over many years, with great commitment to helping those who would not otherwise have access to legal representation. It is also testament to the support many of our barristers have given, working with Nick, by giving free time to help the wider community in this way. Well done to Nick and thank you to all who have supported this work.”
