National recognition for Banner Jones following exceptional year for property team

Banner Jones Solicitors is celebrating another national award win after its Residential Property Team was named Team of the Year (Individual Law) at the 2026 LawNet Awards.

The firm, which has offices across South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, received the accolade at the LawNet Annual Conference Dinner, held at the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport on 6 November.

The award recognises exceptional team performance, with Banner Jones' Residential Property Team standing out following a period of record growth, faster transaction times and outstanding client satisfaction.

The win follows the firm's success at the 2025 LawNet Awards, where it received the Best Innovation Award for transforming its conveyancing service through a fully digital, end-to-end approach.

Since then, the team has continued to build on that success, embracing new technology and improving efficiency while maintaining the personal, supportive service that clients value.

Simon Wright, CEO of Banner Jones, said: “Winning Team of the Year is a fantastic achievement and a real testament to the hard work and dedication of our Residential Property Team.

“Following our Best Innovation win last year, it's particularly rewarding to see the team recognised again, not just for embracing new ways of working, but for the exceptional results they've delivered.

“The team has achieved significant growth while continuing to improve the conveyancing experience for our clients. This award is thoroughly deserved, and I'm incredibly proud of everyone involved.”

Banner Jones was also shortlisted for Excellence in Client Care, recognising its wider investment in people, technology and improving the client experience across the firm.

Simon added: “To receive national recognition for the second consecutive year is a fantastic endorsement of the progress we're making as a business and our continued commitment to putting clients first.”

The LawNet Awards celebrate excellence among independent law firms across the UK, recognising achievements in client service, innovation and team performance.
