Solicitor secures full STEP membership

A solicitor in Sintons’ specialist wills, trusts and estates team has become the latest within the firm to achieve full membership of STEP.

Ed Liddell has completed the process of qualification for STEP, a global professional body whose members support individuals and families in planning for their future, having recently passed his final exam.

STEP membership is a highly regarded accreditation for a private client lawyer and a number of the Sintons team already have the endorsement, or are working towards it.

Ed’s achievement means he is now recognised as delivering the highest standards in supporting families in their future planning, adding further to Sintons’ reputation for delivering legal and client service excellence.

“I am very pleased to have secured full membership of STEP, which is very important for me personally in my development, but also in helping to grow the quality and standards we deliver here at Sintons,” says Ed, who joined Sintons in July last year.

Paul Nickalls, head of the wills, trusts and estates team, says: “This is a great achievement for Ed and independently confirms the excellent work he is doing for his clients. My congratulations go to him on passing his final exam after a stringent assessment process.

“STEP is a very prestigious accreditation, with full membership being the highest level of attainment and we are very proud to have a number of our team who now hold this quality mark.

“Our team continues to grow, underpinned by the increasing level of instructions we receive from across the country, and to meet this demand we continue to bring in new excellent people – Ed being one of our most recent additions. We are committed to delivering the very highest standards of legal and client service, and with a team which continues to develop in size and capability, we are able to support our clients in every way possible.”
