Meet our Four Newly Promoted Senior Associates
Four members of our team have reached an exciting milestone in their careers. Andrew Bruce, Ruth Lussier, Kirsty Dunning and Aaron Doran have all been promoted to Senior Associate, recognising not only their legal expertise but also the trusted relationships they have built with clients and colleagues throughout their time at Raeburns.
Ruth Lussier’s journey with Raeburns began almost 14 years ago when she joined the firm as a secretary. Since then, she has progressed through trainee, solicitor and associate roles to become Senior Associate, reflecting both her dedication and the opportunities available to grow within the firm.
“That journey demonstrates the firm’s commitment to investing in its people and providing opportunities for growth and development,” said Ruth. “I’ve achieved a lot in my almost 14 years with the firm. Let’s see what the next 14 will bring.”
Andrew Bruce is looking forward to taking on greater responsibility while continuing to support clients across the North East of Scotland.
“I’m excited to broaden my experience and continue learning, while making a greater contribution to the team,” said Andrew.
For Kirsty Dunning, the promotion reflects both her professional development and the confidence colleagues have placed in her throughout her career.
“I hope it shows that I have built the skills and trust needed to take on greater responsibility, support my colleagues, and contribute more strategically to the firm’s success,” she said.
Aaron Doran joined our Litigation department nine years ago. Since then, he has worked closely with colleagues across the business while supporting and mentoring junior members of the team.
“I’m proud to have reached this stage in my career, but it’s particularly rewarding to progress alongside a team I really enjoy working with,” said Aaron. “I’m looking forward to building on that experience and continuing to work with clients on a wide range of interesting and complex matters.”
These promotions reflect our continued commitment to developing talent from within and supporting our people as they progress in their careers.
“Each of these individuals has reached a point in their career where they are making a significant contribution, not only through their legal expertise and client relationships, but through the support they provide colleagues and the wider contribution they make to the firm. We’re incredibly proud to see each of them reach this milestone and look forward to watching them continue to develop their careers at Raeburns,” said Heather Stephen, Managing Partner.
