We are delighted to announce our latest promotions as we further invest in our future.
The promotions have been made among our 61-strong Private Client team - with one each at our offices in Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Kirsty Preston makes the step up to Senior Associate at Seabraes in Dundee having joined Lindsays as a Senior Solicitor in June 2018.
At Caledonian Exchange in Edinburgh, Harriet Waters has been promoted to Associate, having begun her career with us as a Solicitor in September 2019.
Gillian Smillie, meanwhile, has become a Senior Paralegal based at Queen Street, Glasgow and she has been a Paralegal with Lindsays for the past six years.
Their promotions take the total number of promotions made across the firm throughout this year to nine - on top of 24 external appointments in client-facing roles, including that of new Glasgow-based Corporate Partner Nicholas Howie last month (September 2023).
And they come just four months after we completed our biggest merger to date - with Miller Hendry - which saw almost 50 partners and staff from offices in Perth, Crieff and Dundee joining our fold.
Managing Partner Alasdair Cummings said: “Our people are Lindsays’ key asset. We pride ourselves on not only encouraging new talent to come to us, but the opportunities we then provide for career advancement - investing in their future and ours.
“Kirsty, Harriet and Gillian’s promotions are very well deserved - testament to their hard work and the high standards of service our firm strives to provide for people and businesses. Congratulations to each of them.”
