A LAWYER WHO began his career in Argentina has joined growing Scottish legal firm Lindsays.
Juan Casal has been appointed as an Associate in the Corporate and Commercial department, based in Edinburgh.
He brings with him a wealth of experience in a wide range of corporate matters, including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures and shareholder agreements.
Juan completed his legal qualification in Argentina before requalifying in English law in 2021. He has worked in-house at top-ranked firms in Argentina, England and Scotland.
David Wood, Partner and Head of Corporate and Commercial at Lindsays, said: “We are delighted to welcome someone of Juan’s calibre to our team.
“His experience in working across a range of sectors – in a variety of countries – will be of real benefit to our clients as we support them in seizing opportunities and navigating challenges.”
Juan’s appointment is the latest of a recent series in Lindsays’ Corporate department, following those of Nicholas Howie as a Partner and Carla Mitchell as a Solicitor, both based in Glasgow.
The firm also completed its biggest merger to date – with Miller Hendry – which saw over 50 partners and staff from offices in Perth, Crieff and Dundee joining its fold in May.
The entire Lindsays team now comprises almost 50 partners and over 300 staff.
