The Aberdeen solicitor picked up her award at a recent dinner in London. Erica picked up the accolade after topping the grades in STEP’s “trusts law and practice”, and “trusts and executry accounting” classes.

Chairman, David Laing says: “The STEP exams are certainly raising the bar for private client solicitors in this specialist area of work.”
