RTA Law LLP announces promotion of James Stevenson to Solicitor

RTA Law LLP is delighted to announce the promotion of James Stevenson to the position of Solicitor.

James undertook his traineeship with the firm and has recently qualified as a solicitor. He brings over seven years’ experience working in personal injury, having previously worked as a paralegal for both the pursuer and defender firms.

In his new role, James will represent vulnerable road users, including motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians who have been injured in road traffic collisions through no fault of their own. He is committed to providing practical, straightforward support to his clients throughout their recovery.

James said, “After a long journey, it is a real privilege to now call myself a solicitor. I am very grateful for the support of the team at RTA Law LLP, as well as all the help and support received from my family and friends along the way.”

He has shown real dedication throughout his traineeship and consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to achieving the best outcomes for his clients. We are delighted to welcome him to the firm’s team of solicitors.”
