  4. Millar & Bryce presents student conveyancing prizes

Millar & Bryce presents student conveyancing prizes

14th July 2017 | education-training

Two Scottish law graduates have been recognised for their outstanding achievements in conveyancing.

Aimee Stuart and Aimee Godfrey both received the "Best Conveyancing Students in Scotland" award, supported by land and property search organisation Millar & Bryce, following exceptional commitment and contribution to their Diploma in Professional Legal Practice.

Ms Stuart, from Edinburgh, studied at the University of Aberdeen, and is about to embark on her two-year traineeship with family business Stuart & Co in the capital. She said: “I am really thrilled to receive this award from Millar & Bryce. My mum is a conveyancer and I spent many a summer job looking through and documenting old sasine reports, so it’s something I really enjoyed at university. I’m really looking forward to being able to apply what I learned into a practical environment.”

Ms Godfrey, from Dundee, studied at the University of Dundee and has just begun her traineeship with Brodies LLP. She commented: “I found the conveyancing part of the diploma really interesting, and it’s something I would definitely like to develop during my traineeship. I’m very grateful to Millar & Bryce for this award, and it’s been a great boost ahead of my start at Brodies to be recognised this way."

Stephen McCluskey, interim managing director of Millar & Bryce said: “The Conveyancing Students Scotland award aims to identify and celebrate the achievements and excellence of law students across the country, and it’s something we are extremely proud to support. The awards provide a chance to reward the outstanding contributions being made by young men and women up and down the country who are getting ready to branch out into the profession, and we feel it’s imperative that we help to unearth and nurture these individuals.

“Both students have shown they have what it takes to forge a great career, and we wish them all the very best for the future.”



“My traineeship is going to involve three, eight month seats with the first splitting between employment and corporate law, and I’m looking forward to gaining exposure across different disciplines.”
As part of the company’s commitment to CPD, Millar & Bryce works in partnership with a range of colleges and universities, offering students studying Legal related courses the opportunity to come into the office, learn about the products and services provided and how they fit into the Conveyancing Process. This also gives the students the opportunity to see first-hand a typical office environment and how processes work in practice.

The company has employed a number of part time students through this process, who have continued to work at Millar & Bryce throughout their studies to suit their timetable and needs of the business. On completion of their studies, a number of these students have then joined the team permanently in a variety of skilled and multi-skilled roles.
