LoopUp’s head of legal, Robert Baugh, has been shortlisted for Solicitor of the Year in the In-house category in the annual Law Society Excellence Awards

LONDON, 04 SEP 2014: LoopUp, the provider of simple, pain-free conference calls and online meetings, today announced that its EVP and General Counsel, Robert Baugh, has been shortlisted for a second time for Solicitor of the Year in the In-house category by The Law Society of England and Wales in their annual Excellence Awards. Robert was shortlisted for this same award in 2009.

The Law Society Excellence Awards shine a spotlight on industry-leading work of both law firms and individual lawyers, as judged by an expert panel.

“We’d like to congratulate Robert on this well-deserved recognition,” said Steve Flavell, co-CEO of LoopUp. “Robert’s experience, knowledge and dedication have led to his playing a much wider role than solely his counsel to the company and board on legal matters, including his business development work with LoopUp’s strategic partners and his position on the company’s executive committee.”

Winners will be announced at an awards dinner on Thursday 9 October 2014 in London. A full shortlist can be found on the Law Society’s website.
