One Pump Court was proud to sponsor the Public Law Award at the 2026 Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards (LALYs), celebrating the exceptional individuals and organisations working across the legal aid sector.

Now in their 24th year, the LALYs recognise the dedication, skill and commitment of those providing access to justice, often in the most challenging circumstances. The awards shine a spotlight on the vital role legal aid practitioners play in supporting individuals and communities across England and Wales.

As a chambers committed to public law and access to justice, we were delighted to support this year’s awards and to recognise the outstanding achievements of all those shortlisted and awarded.

Congratulations to Amalia King of Deighton Pierce Glynn, who received the Public Law Award, and to all of this year’s winners and finalists for their invaluable contribution to the profession.
