Multinational law firm Pinsent Masons won M&A Team of the Year (medium deal), TMT Team of the Year and Litigation & Dispute Resolution Team of the Year at the British Legal Awards 2022.
The firm scooped the TMT award for its role advising on the Lloyd v Google landmark Supreme Court data privacy ruling. Led by partner David Barker, the firm represented Google securing a definitive ruling on the viability of opt-out class actions in a data privacy context.
The firm’s role advising NatWest Group on the landmark PPI case secured a win in the Litigation and Dispute Resolution category. Partner Joanne Gillies led a team advising the bank on the case which redefined the parameters for PPI claims in the County Court system.
Pinsent Masons’ support advising infrastructure, energy and real estate consultants Turner & Townsend (T&T) on a novel partnership structure with commercial real estate services business CBRE secured the M&A medium deal award for the firm. Lead partner Andrew Black and his team advised longstanding client T&T on the project which enabled both businesses to accelerate growth in the energy and infrastructure markets.
