Memery Crystal is delighted to announce that Lesley Gregory, Chairman and Corporate Partner, has won the ‘Legal Adviser of the Year’ Award at the Women in Finance Awards 2019.

As one of the few female Chairmen at a UK law firm, Lesley Gregory has worked to expand the firm’s international offering, founded a successful female entrepreneurs’ network and encouraged an internal culture focused on diversity and core values – all while maintaining her top-rated corporate practice. She is one of only five lawyers (and the only woman) ranked “Band 1” for AIM by Chambers UK, and the only woman ranked “Band 1” for Corporate/M&A: Mid-Market.

This year, Lesley has led on some of the firm’s biggest deals, including advising BDO on their merger with Moore Stephens to create the fifth largest accountancy & advisory firm in the UK, and advising Gaming Realms on the sale of Bear Group to River iGaming.

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.
