A record number of Scotland's biggest law firms have entered the sixth Cuthbert Scottish Legal Awards, sponsored by Bank of Scotland Corporate.

The winners will be revealed at the awards ceremony on Friday 22nd February 2008 at the Glasgow Hilton when over 600 practitioners from across Scotland will join together to celebrate the legal profession's most prestigious annual event.

All nominations have been meticulously and rigorously scrutinised by the panel of judges and it is thanks to the dedication of the panel that the quality of this programme remains so high.
