The Society of Trusts & Estate Practitioners (STEP)

At Greenwoods, we are passionate about delivering an exceptional level of service to our clients, which begins with our highly qualified team of lawyers. Most of our senior Private Wealth lawyers are proud members of STEP (the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners). This distinction reflects their advanced qualifications in the specialised areas of estate administration, trust management, taxation of trusts and estates, and estate accounting, setting a standard many legal professionals aspire to reach.

Our full STEP members are recognised as TEPs (Trust and Estate Practitioners), a prestigious title that marks them as internationally acknowledged experts. With extensive specialist qualifications and a proven track record, TEPs are trusted advisors who offer exceptional knowledge and expertise to every client relationship.

As part of their commitment to the highest standards, TEPs adhere to a strict Code of Professional Conduct, ensuring they act with integrity, and in a manner that inspires the confidence, respect, and trust of their clients. In England and Wales, TEPs who draft Wills are also governed by STEP’s Will Code, ensuring the highest standards of professionalism and care.
