We’re thrilled to share a week of incredible recognition for our team here at Goughs. We were honoured to be named Legal Provider of the Year at the prestigious Bath Life Awards 2026.
The awards, held at The Forum in Bath, celebrate the very best businesses and organisations across the city and surrounding region, recognising excellence, innovation, and impact. Winning in the Legal category is a reflection of the dedication and expertise of our team and our ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional legal services while supporting the communities we serve.
The judging panel noted that “Goughs thoroughly demonstrated its evident success in 2025 including decent growth in its team and national recognition”
The celebrations didn’t stop there. On the same night, at The Business Exchange Inspiring Women event, our Partner Sarah Loveless was recognised as one of the region’s Most Inspiring Women, celebrating her professional achievements and positive impact within the local business community.
Matthew Drew, our Managing Partner, said:
“Winning Legal Provider of the Year at the Bath Life Awards is a huge honour for the firm. It reflects the dedication and expertise of our entire team and the commitment they show every day to delivering outstanding service to our clients. We are incredibly proud to receive this recognition among so many fantastic businesses across the region.”
Sarah Loveless added:
“It has been an incredible week for Goughs. The Bath Life Awards celebrate the very best of the local business community and to see the firm recognised in this way is truly special. I am also personally honoured to have been recognised at The Business Exchange event alongside so many inspiring women doing fantastic work across Somerset and Wiltshire.”
This week has been a reminder of what a talented, dedicated, and inspiring team we have at Goughs. We are proud to celebrate not just our achievements, but the wider business community in Bath and Somerset, and we congratulate all the finalists and winners recognised at both events.
