Partner tops three Davidson Chalmers Stewart promotions

Commercial law firm Davidson Chalmers Stewart has promoted renewable energy specialist Steven McAllister to partner and head of its Renewable Energy team.

Mr McAllister joined the firm in 2019 from Renewable Energy Systems (RES), the world’s largest independent renewable energy company. Since then he has further developed his commercial experience advising developers, landowners and investors across a range of areas including onshore wind, solar PV and battery storage.

Davidson Chalmers Stewart has also promoted to associate level renewable energy lawyer Alex Irwin, and environmental law specialist Chala McKenna. 

Managing partner Andrew Chalmers commented: “We’re delighted to welcome Steven as our newest partner and announce his appointment as the head of the Renewable Energy team. Since joining the firm he has been a huge asset to our team where he’s brought a valuable perspective from his former role as an in-house legal counsel."

He described the newly promoted associates as "two further rising stars within the firm whose energy, knowledge and commitment is benefitting our clients".
