Brodies expands Glasgow construction and engineering team

Brodies LLP has expanded its construction and engineering team in Glasgow.

Senior solicitor Ross McGinness, formerly with Maclay Murray & Spens, is a new hire, and associate Andrew Fairlie will relocate from Brodies’ Edinburgh office to Glasgow, in order to develop the group's practice from the firm’s Blythswood Square premises.

The Group, led by Head of Construction Mark Finlay, has won a number of new appointments – including, within the past month, instructions to represent an international firm of engineers on an NEC3 dispute relating to the infrastructure for a city centre regeneration project, and instructions to advise a major housing association in a dispute with contractors relating to a new-build housing development.
