We are thrilled to share that Eleanor Maciver has been recognised as a Green Ambassador in The Legal 500 UK Green Guide 2025.

Eleanor is the first and only attorney from an IP firm to receive this prestigious recognition, cementing her role as a trailblazer in sustainability within the IP sector. This accolade highlights Eleanor’s commitment to driving meaningful change and reflects her incredible work as our Sustainability Champion, where she leads efforts to embed environmental responsibility into everything we do.

About the Legal 500 UK Green Guide

This is the third edition of The Legal 500 UK Green Guide. According to Legal 500 it is the first guide that recognises the top law firms advising on issues around climate change, ESG, governance and sustainability. The key focus is on selecting the law firms that are contributing to Green Change and ESG. The researchers conduct their research based on law firms' case work (representing clients who seek advice on green technology, focus is being green) and the law firms own sustainability initiatives.
