The Law Awards of Scotland, in association with Registers of Scotland, is now in its fifth year and we have great pleasure to be working in partnership with Registers of Scotland as, together, we look to recognise and reward excellence in the Scottish legal arena.
Using our evaluation process including feedback from the profession we have made some developments to the Law Awards this year.

In addition to our new headline sponsor we would like to welcome The Law Society of Scotland, supporting one of our new categories this year, Corporate Social Responsibility Firm of the Year. And welcome to Practicecare. We also welcome back; Bank of Ireland, Central Law Training, Society of Specialist Paralegals, Instruct Counsel, Professional Office Supplies, Stirling Park, The Herald, The WS Society, Axiom Business Computers and LexisNexis Visualfiles and Interaction, Simpson & Marwick and Towry Law Financial Services as category sponsors.

We have introduced two other new categories for 2008 ensuring the Law Awards of Scotland remains the most comprehensive independent awards in the Scottish Legal Sector. These new categories are Marketing Team of the Year and Intellectual Property Lawyer of the Year.
