BigHand, a leading technology business, today announce that they have won “Supplier of the Year” at the 2016 British Legal Awards. These awards celebrate achievement, excellence and innovation in the legal profession, and are judged by a panel of independent experts from the profession.

The group of experts looked for evidence across the following areas; expertise and professionalism, innovation, value for money, customer care and satisfaction, and measurable success.

BigHand was recognised for its long standing dedication to the legal industry. The judges described BigHand as being "obviously ahead of the game" demonstrating sheer scale of ambition and working with their clients to develop and improve software that helps with their business challenges such as BigHand Workflow Management, one of their latest product releases for task delegation. With BigHand Workflow Management, law firms can boost efficiency and turnaround times. It’s a small change that comes with big impact.

Ian Churchill, CEO of BigHand comments: "I am delighted that we have been awarded 'Supplier of the Year,' these awards recognise excellence and innovation in the legal profession and that is what we at BigHand strive to achieve for our customers."

Churchill added: "As a business we place our customers at the heart of everything we do, and I would like to thank all BigHanders for their continued hard work and dedication, and to the Legal Week panel for recognising BigHand as 'Supplier of the Year' for the UK legal profession.”
