Owner of The Law Practice, Lesley McKnight, and her team, will join Gilson Gray at its Blenheim Place offices.

The Law Practice was established in 2005 and Lesley McKnight took over as principal solicitor in 2018. She specialises in private client services and previously held roles with Ledingham Chalmers and Brodies.

Glen Gilson, chair and managing partner of Gilson Gray, said: “The Law Practice is well known in Aberdeen and is a fitting addition to our operation. While many firms have chosen to reduce their footprint in the city, we are committed to servicing the business community and wider client base, with plans for further expansion to come.”

Lesley McKnight added: “It is great to be joining a forward-thinking modern team like Gilson Gray with a culture that supports both the next generation of clients and legal professionals. With access to a wider range of services and experts, we are growing our own professional family to continue looking after our clients and their families. I’m looking forward to this new chapter.”
