Birmingham Law Society president Andrew Beedham said: "Many congratulations to Anthony Collins Solicitors who were the runaway winners on the night.
"The judges were particularly impressed with the firm's strong commitment to its staff and its approach to attracting and developing those who want to make a difference in society.
"In what was a tough year for the judges, there were some really stand-out candidates and both the winners and finalists should be proud of their achievements."
The Birmingham Law Society lifetime achievement award was presented to Mary Kaye, partner at Shakespeare Martineau and past-president of the society.
Mr Beedham added: "I couldn't think of a more worthy recipient of this accolade than Mary.
"With a career spanning more than 40 years, she is a true champion of the city's legal sector and an inspiration to the many who know her."
Birmingham Law Society is celebrating its bicentenary in 2018.
This year's awards, which were attended by more than 550 people, were just one of a number of planned special events being held throughout the year to celebrate the society's 200th anniversary.
