Aberdeen law firm Raeburn Christie Clark & Wallace has made a number of in-house promotions in response to increased business and a growing client base.

Anne Boyd has become a partner in the firm, and will head up the firm’s conveyancing department, dealing with the organisation of the conveyancing and settlement of property transactions throughout the north east. Ms Boyd, who has more than 20 years' experience in this area of law, has been with Raeburns for over six years.

Jackie Reid, Vicky Christie and Colin McCaul have all been appointed to the role of associate.

Based in the Aberdeen office, Ms Reid has specialised in private client work including wills, trusts, tax planning and guardianship orders since joining Raeburns just over a year ago.

Vicky Christie in Banchory deals primarily with property transactions, wills, powers of attorney and other private client work.

Mr McCaul, who works in the firm’s commercial property department in Aberdeen, undertakes all aspects of commercial property work, including purchases, sales, leasing and security.

Raeburns managing partner Mike Taylor said: "It is great testimony to the firm to see such talent within the various departments, and I am delighted to see Anne, Jackie, Vicky and Colin gain the promotions they deserve."
