The black-tie awards dinner was held at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London on 12th May 2010. The awards were organised by News on the Block and hosted by comedian Dominic Holland. Dominic distinguished himself but singling out some “shy” barristers and generally bringing us all down a peg or two!
The Awards were judged by an independent panel comprising Georgiana Hibberd of RICS Professional Group, Bob Smytherman of the Federation of Private Residents’ Associations and Peter Rodd of the Law Society Property Section.
