Florence Brocklesby, founder of the B Corp-certified boutique law firm Bellevue Law, has been recognised as a pioneer in the legal sector in the prestigious The Fold London Awards, spotlighting remarkable women.

To celebrate International Women’s Day 2024, The Fold London – an award-winning British womenswear fashion label providing luxury business attire – launched a global search to find the next group of inspirational Fold Women who embody the brand’s core values of integrity, innovation and passion.

Following an in-depth deliberation process, a panel of expert judges including Dame Denise Lewis and entrepreneur Vivien Wong chose five inspiring winners from among the many nominations. Florence was selected as the judges’ choice in the category of The Innovator for her role as the founder of Bellevue Law, which is renowned for its exceptional approach to flexibility, work-life balance and business ethics.

Florence says:

“I was concerned when I started Bellevue Law back in 2014 that I might be judged for working flexibly. But, ultimately, the firm’s commitment to flexible working and ethical business practices has turned out to be the key to its success.”
