McIntosh – a former Law Society president and long-serving senior partner of Davies Arnold Cooper (DAC) – joins Fox as a consultant tomorrow (7 March). He will focus on developing a regulatory practice at Fox, which was launched last May by high-profile partnership specialist and former Fox Williams name partner Ronnie Fox.
