Marcus Stone, a group partner of Lexstone Lawyers, commented: “I am absolutely thrilled to hear this news. Lucy has had a formidable two years in growing Lexstone Lawyers to what it is today.

"This is just a small external token of appreciation for all her hard work and achievements. As a general rule of thumb, we tend not to brag about our transactions so we are delighted to hear that they have not gone unnoticed”

This year marks the third edition of Citywealth awards programme which "...champions young professionals in the wealth sector and highlight the leaders under forty of today and tomorrow." The philosophy of the contest is "...to support future leaders who excel at work but who also make an important contribution to society."
