Corporate Counsel Opens Nominations for 2025 Best Legal Departments Awards, Introducing New Humanitarian Category

The 2025 Call for Nominations is now open for Corporate Counsel’s Best Legal Departments, which seeks to recognize outstanding in-house legal teams and leaders. Participants are encouraged to complete the survey available on the event site, which includes questions about their company and legal department, accompanied by a concise essay detailing their merits.

The award categories span several areas, including “Best Deputy or Associate GC,” “Champion of Diversity Award,” “Best Use of Technology,” and a new “Humanitarian Award.” A limited number of nominations are accepted per category, with only two entries allowed from each organization. Law.com will feature the distinguished legal departments in a special report during the fall, culminating in a celebration at the American Lawyer Industry Awards in November.
