Mr Wickham, a member of the firm’s private wealth and fiduciary group, was already included in Citywealth’s list of young professionals under the age of 40 identified as among the most talented working in the private client industry today. Following publication of the Future Leaders’ List, intermediaries were invited to vote for their preferred candidate, resulting in Mr Wickham being named the Gold Award winner in the ‘Lawyer of the Year IFC Associate’ category.

Since joining Bedell Cristin from City law firm Lawrence Graham LLP, Mr Wickham has been a mentor to many STEP students, supporting those taking STEP diplomas and supervising junior lawyers, while he took a prominent role in support of the firm being awarded both STEP Training Partner and Gold Training Partner accreditations; a rare accolade for firms worldwide.

Managing Partner David Cadin said: “We are all delighted for Henry that he has been recognised for his talents. He has not only made a telling contribution to the development of the business, he is highly regarded by his clients and has an impressive and respected role with the STEP organisation in Jersey, including a proven commitment to nurturing career development.”
