Edinburgh based law firm, Bonar Mackenzie, is to join Morisons solicitors operating from the Morisons’ Edinburgh office in Queen Street with immediate effect.
Five Partners and 18 staff will be joining the Morisons’ team which has nine Partners based in Edinburgh and nine in Glasgow.
Morisons Managing Partner Robin Valentine commented, “This development reinforces Morisons commitment to growth and further strengthens our business in the key areas of Commercial Property, Employment and Family Law. We have long been impressed with the quality of the Bonar’s legal team and we are delighted to welcome them aboard”.
Gary Thomas, Commercial Partner with Bonar Mackenzie, added, “We have always had ambitious plans for the firm and this merger enables us to accelerate that far quicker than on our own. We both operate a shared focus on client service and will strive to ensure that develops further, bringing together a greater wealth of talent and services to our clients”.
Morisons has been on the acquisition trail this year, having recently taken in the business of Macrae, Flett & Rennie, specialists in residential and commercial real estate, small business partnerships and social security law. The multi-service firm has offices in both Edinburgh and Glasgow.
