The Harrow Law Centre was shortlisted for the Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards under the category Legal Aid Firm/Not-for-Profit Agency.
“Fifteen years ago, when I had the idea to set up a charity law centre in Harrow, I would never have dreamed we would be shortlisted in the Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards which took place on Friday” said the local socio-political activist and the founder Pamela Fitzpatrick.
“Harrow Law Centre has helped thousands of Harrow residents across issues including housing, education, welfare benefits, immigration and crime. Legal support is financially out of reach for most people, and I’m so glad that we could be there for local residents when they’ve most needed our help” she added.
“Thank you to all our wonderful staff and everyone who has supported us over the years”.
The awards are organised by Legal Aid Practitioners Group, on a non-profit basis, as an unashamed celebration of the work of lawyers on the social justice frontline. It is the close links to the profession’s grassroots that make these awards so special, and unlike any other legal awards.
“The Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards are unique and distinct because the lawyers we celebrate are unlike any others across the entire legal profession. Legal aid tends to attract those who are not just exceptional lawyers but exceptionally courageous and compassionate human beings” say the organisers.
