Boyd Legal adds to commercial property team with director hire

Boyd Legal has secured the services of Shaun Mackintosh who joins its ranks fresh from a senior Aberdeen-based role.

Having previously acted on behalf of property developers, landlords, tenants, games developers, major housebuilders, landowners and global oil companies, and in acquisition and sale of a variety of businesses, Mr Mackintosh boasts more than 16 years’ experience at the highest level – and will work from Boyd’s Edinburgh office in the West End.

He said: “Boyd Legal is a well-respected outfit with major ambitions and plans in place for significant future growth throughout Scotland – and for me that made the move a very attractive proposition.”

He added: “Edinburgh is the place to be for property in the current climate and I am looking forward to getting to know, and really investing in, the city and our clients – exisiting and new.”

Peter Boyd, managing partner of Boyd Legal, said: “I’m delighted to have a fellow Dundonian on board!

“Boyd Legal is a family business but we’re always excited to bring in new blood. Shaun has worked with an unmatched range of clients and his wealth of experience will enable us to further reach our potential.

“We have serious ambitions for growth and business development – through both acquisition and organic means and Shaun’s appointment is going to be the catalyst for this.”
