Tods Murray has been crowned ‘king of the jungle’ by The Prince’s Trust, Scotland. The Tods Murray team, with the help of their "Lion" Gerard Eadie, raised in excess of £102,000 to beat off four of Scotland’s other leading lawyers in a corporate social responsibility (CSR) competition that had all five firms going head-to-head. Throughout the six month competition in 2007, Tods Murray also received a whole host of celebrity endorsement. Harry Potter star, Katie Leung, singer Amy McDonald and rugby star, Gregor Townsend, were just three of the stars who publicly supported Tods Murray’s challenge.
Peter Misselbrook, Executive Partner of Tods Murray, said, "We are delighted and extremely proud to have won. Since May, it has been an incredible journey for every member of our team and we are hugely grateful to all our clients, contacts and friends who have supported us in this challenge. Above all the funds raised will allow the Prince's Trust to change the lives of many young people who, for various reasons, have fallen below the radar, and, but for the work of the Trust, would face a bleak future."

Tods Murray was also a Finalist in The Law Society of Scotland's "CSR Firm of the Year" in The 6th Cuthbert Scottish Legal Awards 2008.
