SCOTS legal firm Balfour + Manson has doubled its Private Client team in Aberdeen.
The Albyn Terrace-based firm is now gearing up for further expansion this year with the hire of new Senior Associate, Greg Lawson, and secretary, Barbara Stephen.
Amy McKay, who joined the firm as an Associate in 2017, has also been promoted to Senior Associate.
Greg and Barbara will join Amy McKay and Secretary Sue Newton in the Aberdeen Private Client and Property team.
Julie Clark Spence, who heads up Balfour+Manson’s Aberdeen office said:
“It’s a very busy time for our Private Client team both in Edinburgh and in Aberdeen and it’s vital that we have high-quality people to provide our clients with the personal service they want and deserve.
“We are delighted to have both Greg and Barbara joining us to help drive forward the firm’s Private Client portfolio.
“Moreover, both have a wealth of experience having worked for law firms across Aberdeen which helps us to underpin a commitment to growing our office, staffed by exceptional people who have extensive local knowledge and who provide a quality range of services to clients both in the city and the wider north-east community.
“We are also delighted for Amy. Her promotion to Senior Associate is just reward for her outstanding Private Client and Property work over the past six years.
“We have an ethos of retaining and rewarding the very best people who match our aspirations to be the leading law firm across the sectors we operate within.”
Balfour + Manson first opened an office in Aberdeen in 2004 and last year, moved to its current office at 6 Albyn Terrace, from its previous base in Carden Place.
It currently has 18 staff in Aberdeen.
