Matthew Quinn, 24, a trainee at Douglas-based law firm Cains Advocates, has passed his Manx Bar exams on the first attempt.
Matthew, who lives in Douglas, was awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Legal Practice with Distinction from the University of Law, Chester.
He had previously achieved a 2:1, with honours, in his law degree at Durham University.
He was also awarded a prize for attaining the highest mark in the litigation examination papers while studying at the University of Law.
‘I am extremely grateful to all of the staff at Cains for their help and support, without which the examination process would have been significantly more difficult,’ said Matthew.
He added: ‘I look forward to completing the remainder of my training contract and to being called to the Manx Bar towards the end of next year.’
