McKee Campbell Morrison (MCM) has appointed employment law specialist and mediator Laura McKenna to head the firm’s newly-launched employment law and HR division.
Laura joins from Morton Fraser’s employment law team, where she worked with a variety of private and public sector clients across a range of sectors.
Her legal experience includes negotiating and resolving complex disputes, representing clients at employment tribunal hearings and general advisory work on contracts, exits, redundancies and business transfers.
McKenna said: “I am keen to get to know clients and their specific business objectives in order to offer tailored advice to help them achieve those objectives as efficiently as possible - this will be a key focus for the new division”.
MCM was founded in early 2021 by Stacy Campbell, Maureen McKee Matheson, Fraser Morrison and Alan McKee.
Since then it has more than doubled its headcount, with 14 fee earners now working across a range of specialisms - including commercial and residential property, corporate, litigation and private client.
Morrison, managing director and head of corporate at MCM, said: “We are delighted to be in a position to launch this new offering and Laura’s experience in the employment sector will add huge value to the excellent service we already offer to our clients.
“We’ve built up a strong client portfolio in the last year and we know there’s a real and growing need for specialist employment law advice, so I’m certain Laura’s appointment will be well received by our existing clients.“
