Share

Kangs Solicitors is pleased to announce that its Senior Partner, Hamraj Kang, has been shortlisted by the Legal 500 for an individual award namely ‘Crime, Fraud & Licensing Solicitor of the Year 2020.’

The Legal 500 award is judged on a national basis and Hamraj has been shortlisted for the award along with six other solicitors in the national category.

This nomination compliments the firm being shortlisted again for the prestigious Legal 500 award of ‘Crime, Fraud and Licensing Law Firm of the Year 2020.’

Both the above nominations represent a tremendous achievement for the firm and to maintain such consistent national recognition for work in the highly competitive areas of criminal defence, financial crime and POCA is very rewarding.
