Resolution’s Annual Awards celebrate the very best talent, innovation and pioneering practice from the wide spectrum of family justice professionals that makes up Resolution’s broadchurch membership.
The Resolution awards are the only values-driven awards in the family justice profession, recognising those individuals that go above and beyond to show a commitment to upholding and championing Resolution’s Code of Practice.
To celebrate Resolution’s 40th anniversary, this year will be the organisation’s biggest ever awards, as we announce the winners at our inaugural gala awards dinner. With ten categories, including five new awards, this year’s celebration reflects the breadth of contributions Resolution members make, and the diversity of the community.
Joshua Rozenberg, Britain’s best known legal commentator, will announce the winners at Church House, London on Wednesday 13th September 2023.
This year’s finalists have been selected by an expert judging panel from across the sector, who deliberated on the many outstanding entries submitted.
In addition to eight judged categories, Resolution’s award for outstanding achievement, the John Cornwell Award will be presented on the night; as will the Members’ Choice award, with the winner being voted for by Resolution members.

Colin Jones, Chief Executive, Resolution, says: “Our first Gala Awards night is the perfect opportunity to celebrate this year’s champions of family justice. The awards are a wonderful celebration of family justice professionals and the incredible work that our members do. Resolution is the go-to organisation for anyone engaged in family work and, to mark our 40th anniversary, I can think of no better way than to recognise our members’ work across the country which promotes our Code of Practice.
“From our family lawyers to our financial advisers and therapeutic professionals, we know there’s amazing work happening across the country and a commitment to Resolution’s values across the board. The awards are our chance to recognise the incredible and inspiring work being done by our members, and to celebrate those who have gone above and beyond to make a difference to the family justice landscape.”
Grant Cameron, Chair, Resolution, says: “I would like to congratulate all of this year’s finalists for the great work they do. It has never been more important that we recognise the achievements of individuals and organisations that promote the highest professional standards in our profession. Resolution’s awards are the ultimate seal of approval for those who work with families and individuals to resolve issues in a constructive way.
“Shining through all the entries this year is a commitment to our Code of Practice, innovation and dedication. The importance of what our members do day in, day out cannot be overstated, and it will be a great pleasure for us to come together and celebrate the very best talent, people and initiatives in our profession at Resolution’s Awards Gala Dinner.”
