The 5th Annual FT Innovative Lawyers Awards took place on 5 October 2011 at the Science Museum, London. The theme of this year's FT Innovative Lawyers Report and Awards is 'Taking Bold Decisions'.

Now in its sixth year of publication, the FT Innovative Lawyers Report has become one of the top legal rankings in Europe and the accompanying awards are widely regarded as the best researched in the market. It presents a unique analysis of the legal industry and is the only ranking of lawyers by innovation. We base both the report and awards on thorough research and robust journalism.
