April Bingham, head of corporate at Bellwether Green, said: “Fran has been a lynchpin within the Pinsent Masons litigation team for more than a decade. She is a fantastic lawyer who is incredibly well respected amongst peers and clients alike. She fits perfectly with our ambitions to attract Scotland’s best legal talent and to deliver them back to the market at rates that really work for new and existing clients.”

Ms Ennis said: “I am absolutely delighted to be joining Bellwether Green. One of the biggest draws for me was the firm’s obvious focus on quality of legal advice, based on knowing their clients’ businesses inside out.

“COVID-19 has led to an unprecedented period of economic uncertainty and now, more than ever, clients are looking for solid legal advice from advisers that understand their business and the need for a flexible approach in these uncertain times. I am totally committed to supporting Bellwether Green’s clients through these challenging times.”
