Lisa Law joins Brodies as director. With more than 12 years’ experience, she specialises in wills, power or attorney and guardianship, as well as trusts and executries. She is an accredited specialist in incapacity and mental disability law and is a notary public.

Also joining the firm is senior associate, Sarah Lilley. Ms Lilley has practised family law exclusively for the past 12 years. She is trained in the collaborative method of dispute resolution, is an accredited specialist in child law and a notary public.

Ms Law and Ms Lilley join Brodies from Innes and Mackay. Their appointments bring the number of colleagues based in Brodies’ Dingwall office to seven. Earlier this year the firm announced that following her promotion to partner, real estate lawyer, Karren Smith, would take on a leading role in the firm’s Highlands and Islands base.

Brodies managing partner, Nick Scott, said: “We committed to our Highlands presence in 2018 so that we could support current and future clients in the region with the full range of legal services that our firm can offer. Our growth is focused on building that practice with local experts, and in welcoming Lisa and Sarah to Brodies we underline that commitment.

“Our clients will be able to benefit from the knowledge, skill and experience that Lisa and Sarah bring to the firm, and which will complement the wider personal and family practice. We wish them well in their careers here at Brodies.”
