The STEP Private Client Awards is regarded as an opportunity for entrants to demonstrate excellence to peer groups and clients. Now in its ninth year, these prestigious awards highlight excellence among private client solicitors/attorneys, accountants, barristers, bankers, trust managers and financial advisors.

The awards are open to both STEP members and non-members to enter and all categories are open internationally.

The judges assess entries and shortlist up to five nominees per category. They are supported by a Panel of Experts selected by the judges and represent internationally renowned solicitors, lawyers, accountants, financial advisors, barristers and trust companies.

These are one of the most prestigious international awards for specialist private client, trust and estate practitioners and Gary is proud to be invited to join the panel.
