Seven new partners for Shepherd and Wedderburn

Leading UK law firm Shepherd and Wedderburn has announced the internal assumption, on 1 May 2007, of seven partners. 

Following outstanding performance in their specialist fields, promotions have been achieved by:

  • Rodger Cairns - Employee Share Incentives (Edinburgh/Glasgow)
  • Paul Donald - Property (Edinburgh)
  • Danny Lee - Corporate Finance (Edinburgh)
  • Elizabeth McCandlish - Property (Edinburgh)
  • Kim Pattullo  - Employment (Aberdeen/Edinburgh)
  • Lynne Scott - Projects (London)
  • Michael Wylie  - Corporate Finance (Edinburgh/London)

Patrick Andrews, Chief Executive of Shepherd and Wedderburn commented:  “All seven of our new partners have worked very hard to become well established in their respective fields.  They are an asset to Shepherd and Wedderburn as it grows and develops its UK market position.  What is particularly satisfying is that the skill and experience that they each have to offer both further consolidates the firm's position in Scotland and reflects the continued success in the development of the London office."

The promotions follow the appointment of two new partners to the firm from US law firms.  Angus Rollo and Blair Adams join in May from Shearman Sterling and O'Melveny & Myers respectively.  Both will be based in the firm’s City office.
