Pinsent Masons has hired a new partner for its Scottish construction practice with dual-qualified McGrigors director Michael Allan joining the national firm’s Edinburgh office this month. Allan, who specialises in property development, engineering and projects work, has previously acted on deals including the redevelopment of the Royal Bank of Scotland’s global headquarters in Edinburgh. The appointment grows Pinsents’ Scots construction offering into a 16-lawyer practice, part of a national department that advises a roster of clients including Amec and Carillion.
