Brodies makes family law partner hire

Brodies has added to its family practice with the appointment of Jacqueline Stroud, who joins the firm as partner.

With more than 30 years' experience in family law, Jacqueline will be based in Brodies' Edinburgh office. Formerly a partner in MacRoberts, she is an accredited specialist in family law and an accredited family law mediator. 

Her appointment follows the recent promotions of Inverness-based Sarah Lilley, and Susie Mountain in Aberdeen, and brings the number of specialist family partners at Brodies to five.

Managing partner Nick Scott commented: "Our clients will benefit from Jacqueline's experience. Her appointment further strengthens our family team, which, following the promotions of Sarah and Susie, now sees partners in all our offices – Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Inverness and Glasgow – delivering on the objectives we set ourselves in our 2021-2024 strategic plans. We welcome Jacqueline to the firm and look forward to her contribution."
