Leading law firm Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie LLP (WJM) has strengthened its Inverness office with two experienced solicitors returning after two years.
The firm welcomes back Senior Associate Alison Reid and Legal Director Yasmin Myles as they return to WJM.
Alison joins the Private Client team, specialising in Wills and Estate Planning, Power of Attorney, Trusts and Executries, while Yasmin will be a part of the Commercial Property and Renewables teams.
Both Alison and Yasmin bring significant experience as the office embarks on the year head by looking to expand its service offering to clients across the Highlands and Islands, with Private Client and Renewables set to be key growth areas in particular.
Partner and Head of the Inverness office, Angus MacLeod, said, “It’s wonderful to have Alison and Yasmin back with us and we know they will bring local knowledge and excellent sector experience with them as well as enhancing our service offering to our growing client base in the region.
Significant inheritance tax changes coming into effect from April this year will inevitably generate a need for a lot of legal work, particularly in the private client sphere so bolstering our team with the addition of Alison will increase our capacity to assist clients as they navigate and prepare for the changes.
Renewables will also continue to be a real area of focus for our firm, with plans to grow the team over the coming year so Yasmin is a very welcome addition to the team and brings a wealth of experience.”
