We’re expanding our service offering for families, individuals and businesses
This spring, we were excited to welcome Gurjit Pall as a Partner at Lindsays, where he is leading our new service supporting businesses and individuals on immigration matters. The launch responds to the growing demand from businesses and families for expert guidance to navigate the complex UK immigration system.
Bringing more than a decade of experience to his new role, Gurjit said, “This role is incredibly rewarding because it allows me to make a real difference in people’s lives. I’m thrilled to join Lindsays as the firm grows its immigration law offering.”

Services for businesses
In our Edinburgh office, we have also recently welcomed Michael Kitson as a Director in our Commercial Property team. Michael brings a wealth of experience of working with developers, contractors, consultants and funders, and his expertise includes drafting and negotiating all forms of construction documentation.
Commenting on this key appointment, Derek Nash, our Head of Commercial Property said, “Michael’s experience across a range of sectors and project types will bring real benefits to the clients we advise to ensure that they are in the best possible position to safeguard themselves and the developments in which they are involved.”
Also increasing our support for business clients is new Senior Associate Sharon Somerville, our first corporate lawyer based in Dundee.
New support for people and families in Perth and Dundee
We’ve also responded to the growing demand for our services across Perthshire and Tayside. Through key appointments in our Perth and Dundee offices, we’re extending our support for people and families, whether they are marrying, moving or navigating other stages of the journey through life.
In our Family Law team, Clair Cranston has joined us as an Associate, working closely with our Family Law Partner Caroline Mackintosh in our Perth and Dundee offices. Both advise on a wide range of matters including divorce, separation, child contact and residence, cohabitation agreements, prenups, postnups and adoption.
Meanwhile, in our Residential Property team in Dundee, Lisa Mannion has come on board as a Senior Associate. She’s using her vast experience across the full spectrum of residential conveyancing to support clients across Tayside. And in Perth, the arrival of new Associate Mairi Innes has strengthened our Residential Conveyancing team.
Both Lisa and Mairi offer clients the benefit of strong local market knowledge, having lived and worked in the area for a number of years.
Stronger than ever
Welcoming our new colleagues to Lindsays, our Managing Partner Alasdair Cummings said, “As a firm, we pride ourselves on responding to the needs of the people we work with, and these new appointments illustrate that perfectly.
“Whether you’re a Scottish business looking for end-to-end guidance on immigration issues or a commercial property project, or a Dundee or Perth family looking for guidance on your journey through life, the experience and expertise of our new colleagues enable us to support you more than ever.”
