Ms Cowan, who joins from Morton Fraser, specialises in non-contentious transactional construction law and brings a wealth of experience advising developers, investors, funders, public authorities and housing associations on all aspects of transactional construction law from procurement to completion.

Stacey Cassidy, partner at TLT, said: “Alyson’s experience working with clients across the retail, leisure and real estate sectors fits perfectly with TLT’s strong sector approach and her experience will be a great asset to the firm as we continue to develop our construction offering in Scotland and throughout the UK.”

John Paul Sheridan, partner and location head for TLT in Scotland, added: “We are on an upward growth trajectory in Scotland and committed to building on our national strength in key areas, including real estate and construction. Our strategy to 2025 prioritises transforming the way the firm delivers for clients with investment continuing across our seven sectors.

“Our impending office move to Glasgow’s flagship sustainable office development alongside the creation of our fully flexible, progressive and inclusive work environment helps ensure we can attract top talent, such as Alyson, to the firm. We’re really pleased to welcome her to TLT.”

Ms Cowan commented: “I am delighted to join TLT during such an exciting phase of growth for the firm. TLT has a great reputation for being an excellent employer and I was particularly drawn to the firm’s cross jurisdictional capabilities and clients. I’m looking forward to bringing my expertise to TLT and growing the firm’s construction offering.”
