Siobhan Rooney Recognised in Pro Bono List of England & Wales 2025

Pictons Partner, Siobhan Rooney has been included in the Pro Bono Recognition List of England & Wales for 2025.

The List recognises solicitors and barristers who gave 25 hours or more pro bono legal assistance over the last year. The initiative is supported by the Law Society, the Bar Council, CILEX and all the major pro bono organisations under the aegis of the Attorney General’s Pro Bono Committee.

Siobhan has earned this recognition for a second successive year following her support for a variety of charities and community causes.

Commenting on those recognised by the scheme Lady Chief Justice of England and Wales, The Baroness Carr of Walton-on-the-Hill said:

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every lawyer who appears on the Recognition List. Each has provided at least 25 hours of legal pro bono last year, with many offering substantially more than that. Those lawyers follow the long tradition of the legal profession in volunteering their time to provide free legal assistance to individuals and charities. I am particularly pleased to see that a number of lawyers appear for the second time, having been recognised on last year’s inaugural List, demonstrating their continued commitment to pro bono causes.”

Siobhan was delighted to receive recognition under the scheme.

“I am delighted to be recognised in this list for a second successive year. I, and the Pictons team, see ourselves as paramount to the communities we serve, and thrive to provide as much support as we can. To receive external recognition for this work is always lovely to hear.”
