Woodstock Legal Services shortlisted for Business Growth as three consultants earn individual Modern Law Awards recognition

Kirsty Jocham • March 23, 2026

We are proud to share that Woodstock Legal Services has been shortlisted for Business Growth of the Year at the Modern Law Awards. At the same time, three of our consultants have also been shortlisted for Consultant of the Year, which makes this recognition even more special for us as a firm.


Our growth has always been intentional. We have focused on building a business where experienced lawyers can do their best work, where people feel properly supported, and where clients receive straightforward, high quality legal advice from people who genuinely care about what they do.


Over the past year we have continued to strengthen our consultant community, invest in the infrastructure behind the firm, and focus on sustainable growth. This shortlisting reflects the collective effort of the people who make Woodstock what it is.


We are especially proud to see Becci Newton, Samantha Apsey, and Tamsin Ledger shortlisted for Consultant of the Year. Their recognition reflects not only their individual expertise and commitment to their clients, but also the strength and depth of experience across our consultant community.

Carly Jermyn, Managing Director of Woodstock Legal Services, said:


"This recognition is important because it shows that you can grow a law firm without losing what matters. We have focused on bringing in good people, supporting them properly, and building a business where experienced lawyers can genuinely enjoy their work again.



I am especially pleased to see three of our consultants recognised. They represent the standard of expertise and care we want Woodstock to be known for. When our consultants succeed, our whole firm succeeds.


This recognition belongs to our whole team and I am incredibly proud of what we are continuing to build together."
