Law At Work becomes WorkNest
Law At Work (LAW) – the Edinburgh-based employment law, HR, and health and safety firm – has announced it has joined associated businesses owned by Marlowe plc to become WorkNest, a new £35m brand.
The firm’s Edinburgh office will be the centre for WorkNest’s Scottish client management and home to teams of employment solicitors, HR consultants and safety managers. WorkNest’s Scottish presence further extends to hub offices in Aberdeen, Alloa and Glasgow.
Marlowe acquired LAW in December 2019, one of several recent acquisitions made by the company.
Alongside LAW’s Edinburgh and Aberdeen offices, the Glasgow office brings together LAW and Ellis Whittam employment law teams. Ellis Whittam, another specialist in employment law, HR and health & safety, was acquired by Marlowe in October 2020.
Donald MacKinnon, formerly group legal director at LAW and now group legal director at WorkNest LAW, said: “WorkNest brings together a broad range of services that will help our clients to further protect and nurture their organisations. LAW clients will continue to receive the high-quality support they know and trust, while now benefiting from a wider offer that helps employers to navigate the complex employment landscape.”
