Mr Smith is based within the firm’s Glasgow office where he works in the lung disease team and both Ms Urie and Ms Donald are based within the Galashiels office where they oversee a wide range of reparation cases.

Ms Donald said: “I think that I speak on behalf of my colleagues in saying that we are all delighted to have been promoted to the position of Associate within Thompsons. It is a great compliment to us and our endeavours, and highlights the firm’s continued strength.”

Thompsons Partner, Glen Millar, said: “Natalie, Marina & Kieran all strive to do the very best for their clients and have first class legal minds. Promoting them was an obvious step and reflective of our commitment as a firm to champion such talent.”
