Awdry Law is proud to announce that it has been named as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2026, recognising the firm’s ongoing commitment to creating a positive, supportive and engaging working environment for its people.
With offices across Wiltshire and Bath, Awdry Law employs over 150 people across a wide range of legal and central services roles. The firm has long placed a strong emphasis on fostering a workplace culture that prioritises collaboration, wellbeing and professional development, with clear progression opportunities, structured training programmes and a wide range of initiatives designed to support its people at every stage of their careers.
Alongside its focus on professional growth, Awdry Law offers a vibrant and inclusive culture, supported by regular social events, an active Sustainable Development Group, a Thriving at Work team and a variety of opportunities for colleagues to engage in volunteering and community initiatives across the region it serves.
Commenting on the recognition, Managing Partner, Alexander David, said:
“This has been years in the making, and I am absolutely delighted. We made a conscious decision some time ago to take the long road in striving to be a great place to work, as well as being a progressive law firm; it appears that being the former is a very good way of achieving the latter. What makes Awdry Law special is our people. They define the business, shaping the culture, the environment and the feeling you get from being part of the firm. I am incredibly proud to work alongside them. We are not the finished article, and we never will be, but we will always have the drive to improve while holding on to the culture we have built together.”
Lee Leonard, HR Director at Awdry Law, added:
“It is a real honour to lead the HR team at Awdry Law. When I joined over five years ago, my ambition was to help shape and strengthen the culture of the firm and ensure our values are genuinely reflected in everything we do. We focus not only on attracting talented individuals, but on welcoming people who are friendly, positive and aligned with who we are as a firm. It is a genuine pleasure to work at Awdry Law.”
This recognition highlights Awdry Law’s continued investment in its people and its belief that a strong, values led culture is fundamental to delivering excellent service to clients.
