We are delighted to announce that Kira King has been shortlisted for the Advocate of the Year award at the Women & Diversity in Law Awards 2026.
Hosted by The Global Legal Post, the Women & Diversity in Law Awards celebrate outstanding women leaders, practitioners, and changemakers across the profession. The shortlist recognises those working to ensure the legal sector better reflects the diverse society it serves.
Kira’s dedication to championing inclusion, amplifying underrepresented voices, and driving advocacy-led change has made a significant impact across the legal community, making this recognition truly well deserved.
The winners will be announced at a ceremony on 28 April at the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square.
Many congratulations to Kira, and to all those shortlisted.
