Our merger with Hadden Rankin
At the end of 2019, Lindsays merged with Edinburgh-based legal practice, Hadden Rankin. The merger saw all Hadden Rankin staff given the pportunity to transfer to Lindsays, and Hadden Rankin’s founding partners - Ross Hadden and Dot Rankin - become partners at Lindsays.
Hadden Rankin’s expertise lies in property and private client services, and this merger will provide their clients with the wider range of legal services that we offer.
This marks our latest merger in a programme of strategic expansion, which has included similar mergers with MacLachlan & MacKenzie (2012), Shield & Kyd (2012), RSB Macdonald (2015) and Aitken Nairn (2018).
Our Managing Partner, Alasdair Cummings said: “We’re delighted to continue our growth through this merger with Hadden Rankin. Ross and Dot have built an excellent practice which provides a strong fit with Lindsays, and we welcome them to our partnership.
“Throughout Lindsays’ long history we have constantly adapted and evolved, but our core ethos - to provide expert, accessible and reliable lawyers - has endured, and Ross and Dot will play a key part in continuing this philosophy when looking after clients’ personal, family or business affairs.”
Discover our new property website
We are very pleased to have launched our new residential property website: property.lindsays.co.uk
Andrew Diamond, Partner and Head of Residential Property at Lindsays, said:
"Today’s home buyers and owners do the majority of their research and property searches online so we wanted our website to be easy to use, comprehensive and helpful. I’m sure that anyone considering a house move will find everything they need to help them move on our new site including some useful information on buying and selling in Scotland and insights on the property market."
We’ve ensured that our site is fully accessible by incorporating Recite Me software, which is designed to make sure that people who cannot access web content easily are able to read and navigate it with ease. We’ve also made it simple for people to request a free valuation of their property or sign up for property alerts when a new property comes on to the market.
