MacRoberts boosts turnover by 10%

MacRoberts has posted a 10% rise in turnover to £20.6m, while profits were also up by 17%.

The Scottish commercial law firm's statement for the financial year to 30 April 2022 also showed new partner promotions for Nicole Cook and Mark Quinn in property, as well as a lateral partner appointment for Isobell Reid in commercial dispute resolution.

Other promotions came in areas including construction, corporate and commercial, intellectual property and technology, projects, property, private client and family law, as well as trainees qualifying as solicitors into the banking and corporate finance teams.

The firm is also recruiting additional lawyers in commercial contracts, renewable energy, projects and private client.

There was also a move to new Grade A offices at 10 George Street, Edinburgh and investment in business-critical IT platforms and infrastructure.

Managing partner Neil Kennedy said: “I am pleased to post such a strong set of financial results to April 2022, which are the direct result of considerable strategic development and investment across all areas of the business, most notably in our operating platform, allowing us to deliver the highest quality service possible to our clients.

“We have prioritised our people, enhancing our existing agile platform, which has delivered immediate benefits in terms of engagement, well-being and inclusion.

“As we move into the new financial year, we have continued that momentum with further strong growth in a number of key sectors and we anticipate another positive year for the firm, our people and our clients.”
