Memery Crystal is delighted to announce that Lesley Gregory, Chairman and Corporate Partner, has been shortlisted for the ‘Legal Adviser of the Year’ Award at the Women in Finance Awards London, for a fourth year running. Lesley was awarded the prestigious title of ‘Legal Adviser of the Year’ in 2019. The shortlist was announced on the 21st May and the awards take place on the 16th November 2020 at Grosvenor House Hotel, London.
As one of the few female Chairmen at a UK law firm, Lesley Gregory has worked to expand the firm’s international offering and encouraged an internal culture focused on diversity and core values – all while maintaining her top-rated corporate practice. She is one of only two lawyers (and the only woman) ranked as an “Eminent Practioner” for AIM by Chambers UK, and the only woman ranked “Band 1” for Corporate/M&A: Mid-Market.
Lesley has also founded a successful female entrepreneurs’ network which aims to bring female founders and investors together. The networks provides female entrepreneurs and professionals with support and inspiration, along with access to mentors and inspirational speakers. The network started with just 25 people, but it grew fast with members ranging from young entrepreneurs with scale up businesses to more experienced women who are angel investors or NEDs. It was particularly important for Lesley to seek out female entrepreneurs and women from the investment community as she wanted to bring investors together with female founders to give them the opportunity to share their experiences.
The Women in Finance Awards is Europe’s largest diversity initiative, recognising the high-achievers, advocates, and role models for women in the sector. The ‘Legal Adviser of the Year’ award celebrates the corporate lawyer that has broken down barriers to advancement and carved out a niche for herself in the firm and wider sector, as well as paving the way for diversity and leadership.
