Third UK-wide team for McGrigors

Five-partner planning group will focus on operations across the UK
Law firm McGrigors LLP has launched a new five-partner planning team.
The team will focus on business across the UK and consolidates expertise from its real estate, commercial litigation and environment practices.
The combined experience of Jacqueline Harris, Craig Connal QC, Jennifer Ballantyne, John Curran and Anna Forge spans all aspects of public and private property law. Ms Forge, whose specialist areas are regeneration and local government planning, is a new hire in the firm's London office.
Jacqueline Harris, head of the planning team, said: “The addition of a London planning team gives us a UK reach which is increasingly important as Scottish clients expand into England and Wales."
The formation of the planning team is the third such move by McGrigors in recent months, following the creation of UK-wide teams covering private equity and capital market transactions.
