An associate at international law firm Womble Bond Dickinson (WBD) has been named as a future key private wealth practitioner by a leading trade publication.
Stephanie Antrobus, an associate in the firm's Private Capital team based in Leeds, has been named as one of the 2024 eprivateclient NextGen Leaders – an accolade which recognises the leading young private client practitioners in the UK and Crown Dependencies.
Those named on the list, which was judged by leading trade publication eprivateclient's senior editorial team, are regarded for not only the quality of their work as a practitioner early in their career, but additional factors including organisational performance, career trajectory, and any volunteering or industry advocacy they have participated in.
Stephanie, who qualified into the Private Capital team in September 2021 works with clients on a variety of matters including trusts, inheritance and estate disputes, with a focus on contested, high value and complex trust and estates disputes as well as complex trust administration, Variation of Trust Act claims, and professional negligence claims relating to trusts and estates.
In the publication's ranking, Stephanie was noted for her 'dedication, hard work and ability to deliver results', with the entry also highlighting her active role in the firm's Corporate Social Responsibility Committee and her abilities in 'creating a supportive environment and encouraging growth by actively cultivating junior colleagues within the firm' through her mentorship of trainee and newly qualified solicitors.
Stephanie said: "It is an absolute honour to be named as one of the 2024 eprivateclient NextGen leaders and be recognised for my efforts over the last few years. I would like to thank not only eprivateclient for their recognition, but the incredible team I work with for their guidance, support, and help on a day-to-day basis."
Neil Long, head of WBD's Private Capital team, said: "
Stephanie is an incredibly bright and talented associate who is a very deserving achiever of this accolade. Her expertise in providing a high-quality, client-focused service has been an asset to the team and the clients she works with, and we are thrilled to see one of our team recognised by a leading publication in this manner."
Stephanie joins other members of the firm's private client team who have been noted by the publication for their work in the sector, with partners Alexander Dickinson and Neil Long previously named in eprivateclient Most Influential lists.
