Iona Beeston

Iona joined Steele Raymond in 2023 as a Paralegal in Dispute Resolution, began her training contract with us shortly after and qualified back into the same team, after seats across three areas of law. That continuity means she understands our internal processes and the way our disputes team coordinates strategy, which helps clients see clear next steps.

Her practice spans commercial and civil litigation, with experience that includes contractual and company disputes, insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings, intellectual property disputes, professional negligence claims and debt recovery. She has supported senior lawyers on complex matters and has built a strong foundation across the procedures and tactics that move cases forward. For clients, that breadth translates into early clarity on the route through a dispute and realistic choices about negotiation or proceedings.

Iona’s working style is proactive, professional and focused on practical solutions. She keeps clients fully informed and engaged, explains options in plain language and sequences tasks so the case advances in the right order. That emphasis on communication reduces uncertainty and helps decision makers stay aligned as a matter develops. Clients find Iona approachable and appreciate the steady, thoughtful way she manages contact with the other side.
