Edinburgh legal director among WBD senior promotions

International law firm Womble Bond Dickinson has promoted Clare Lamond in its Edinburgh office to legal director, as one of a number of senior promotions across its UK offices.

With over 25 years' experience in commercial real estate, Ms Lamond has grown the retail arm of the firm's Scottish practice significantly since joining WBD just over two years ago. 

A total of 12 partners and two legal directors have been recognised in this round, which follows the promotions of 17 new associates and associate paralegals in May.

Paul Stewart, UK managing partner at Womble Bond Dickinson, commented: "Congratulations to all of our new partners and legal directors, whose hard work, commitment and contribution to the growth of our business deserves to be recognised and celebrated.

"We're proud of the incredible talent we've developed at the firm. People are at the heart of what we do and we want them to enjoy long and successful careers with us. This is why we make it our priority to ensure everyone has the opportunity to develop, grow and be rewarded for their success."
