Rising To The Top!

Carson McDowell has just announced the promotion of four of their associates to Partnership within the firm. The new Partners are Emma Cooper, Property, Stuart Murphy, Construction, Dawn McKnight, Corporate & Commercial and Leigh Linton, Litigation.

Senior Partner Alan Reilly said "These promotions reflect the growth which we are still experiencing within the Firm. Three months ago, we announced the recruitment of five new lawyers to the firm and these additional promotions highlight that we are continuing to perform strongly across all sectors, including property and construction. We are committed to hiring and promoting the best people to ensure our clients have access to expertise across a range of disciplines right here in Belfast."

Commenting on the outlook for Northern Irish businesses Alan Reilly said: "There is no doubt that the economy is brighter than it was this time last year and despite the prospect of public sector cuts and slow growth, I think our continued recruitment and promotions show just how confident we are about the market and the economy generally. Clients still need to access the best expertise to manage the challenges and opportunities their businesses will meet in good times and bad."

Carson McDowell has over 100 people working in their Belfast office and is the only Northern Ireland law firm to have every Partner ranked in Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession.
