PI lawyer Lisa Gregory joins Grant Smith in Aberdeen

Aberdeen firm Grant Smith Law Practice has announced the appointment of Lisa Gregory as a consultant.

Ms Gregory, who joins from Digby Brown where she was a partner, has over 25 years’ experience as a personal injury lawyer in Aberdeen and the north east. Her cases include the Super Puma North Sea helicopter disaster in April 2009 and the CHC Helicopter crash off Shetland in August 2013.

She commented: "Despite more stringent health and safety laws and advances in technology, people in Scotland still have accidents all too often. Sadly, three of Aberdeenshire and Moray’s areas of excellence – offshore oil and gas, agriculture and fishing are some of the most consistently dangerous areas of work. 

"My years of dealing with the aftermath of the serious injuries and tragic fatalities tell us that more has to be done."

Andrew Duthie, senior director of Grant Smith Law Practice, added: “We are delighted to welcome Lisa to the team. We have often called upon her to assist our clients who have been unfortunate enough to be injured.

"Her pragmatic approach, her unrivalled wealth of experience in Aberdeen, Elgin and surrounds and her genuine desire to help her clients makes her a huge asset going forward. We can now add personal injury legal expertise to our current range of services sure in the knowledge that we have an expert onboard."
