Collas Crill has been announced Private Client Legal Team of the Year (midsize firm) at the prestigious 2024 STEP Private Client Awards.

The STEP Private Client Awards are seen as the hallmark of quality within the private client industry, recognising and celebrating excellence among private client solicitors, lawyers, accountants, barristers, bankers, trust managers and financial advisers.

All entries undergo a rigorous judging process with up to five finalists in each category. Judges are supported by an independent panel of experts of internationally renowned practitioners in the wealth management arena.

The winners were announced at the awards ceremony on 19 September 2024 at the London Hilton on Park Lane. Writer and broadcaster Susie Dent hosted the evening.  

The Judges commented that Collas Crill has an impressive multi-disciplinary and multi-jurisdictional practice that allows it to punch well above its weight in providing advice and services to a diverse and global clientele. It does all of this while maintaining the feel of the smaller organisation that it is, illustrated by its innovative solutions and community and charitable involvement.

Global head of the firm’s Private Client and Trusts team, Christian Hay, said: ‘I was delighted to accept this award on behalf of the entire Collas Crill private client team. It’s a testament to the dedication that they have demonstrated over the last 12 months and a reflection of the faith that the global private client community places in our expertise.

‘One of our key values is that we are easy to do business with and this is ingrained in the culture at Collas Crill. Our success is not based solely on our high standards of professional expertise and legal skill, what really sets us apart is the way we work and the time and care we put into building strong relationships with our clients.

‘Our private client team across all our locations works tirelessly with genuine passion, hard work and dedication to build these client relationships to deliver a high level and seamless service. This award reflects this and I am extremely proud that the team has been recognised by STEP and peers in the industry.’
