The Managing Partner of Faversham law firm Tassells Solicitors, Alexandra Gordon has been named Managing Partner of the Year at the Modern Law Private Client Awards, with Associate Sophie Wallace winning the Rising Star of the Year category. Tassells Paralegal Jack Gould was also shortlisted in the Best Paralegal category at the awards.

The Modern Law Private Client Awards celebrate excellence and innovation within the private client sector. This year’s impressive judging panel was chaired by Caroline Bielanska, former Chief Executive and former Chair of Solicitors for the Elderly, an organisation she helped to found in 1999; with Mike Evans – Deputy Vice President of the Law Society and lecturer at the University of Law – holding the role of Vice Chair on the panel. 

In the Managing Partner of the Year category, judges were looking for an individual who clearly articulates and communicates their firm’s purpose and priorities in order to engage its people and clients in a way that exceeds expectations.

The Rising Star of the Year category judged entrants on their ability to provide exceptional client service, their high levels of skill and technical ability, possessing a flare for innovation and initiative when facing challenging situations.

Commenting on the awards success, Alexandra said:

“To be shortlisted in three categories (and winning two of them!) at the Modern Law Magazine Private Client Awards is such a huge achievement for us as a firm. 

“Jack Gould has only been with us for five months and what an impact he has made already – congratulations Jack, you may have missed out on the night but you are a winner to us and I am so proud of your shortlisting in such a tough category.

“I would also like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to Sophie Wallace on winning Rising Star of the Year. Sophie has been instrumental to the development of the firm over the last 15 months and we are so lucky to have her in the team.

“Lastly, I would like to say how grateful I am to be recognised as Managing Partner of the Year, especially given the strong competition in this category. We had a wonderful time in Liverpool celebrating the stand-out stars in our profession, and I would like to thank the organisers for their hard work in executing such a great event.”
