A capacity audience braved the icy weather to descend on Old Billingsgate Market in the City of London for the British Legal Awards on 2 December.

The event, hosted by comedian Jack Dee, saw Berwin Leighton Paisner (BLP), Allen & Overy (A&O) and BAE Systems among the prize winners on the night, while the City of London Law Society honoured Clifford Chance senior partner Stuart Popham with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
