Mr Caldwell joins Morton Fraser in May from Taylor Wessing, where he specialised in advising lenders, borrowers and sponsors in complex financing transactions. He has worked as a partner in London for the past 10 years and will be responsible for cultivating the firm’s relationships there as well as adding further strength to Morton Fraser's finance practice.
