Property expert hired as partner in Leeds

Bevan Brittan has announced its sixth new partner hire of 2024. Property specialist Julie Morrison brings over 20 years of real estate experience to the Leeds team and will be working on property matters for a number of NHS bodies and the Welsh Education Partnership (WEPCo).

She will also work alongside Bevan Brittan’s new head of property Rob Harrison to help manage the firm’s growing list of clients seeking advice and support.

Joining from Eversheds, Julie has experience of advising well-known investor, retailer and corporate clients on the full range of real estate transactions, including acquisitions, disposals, complex landlord and tenant transactions and development work.

Lyndon Campbell, property partner and head of Bevan Brittan’s Leeds office, said: ‘Julie is the latest in a significant line of notable senior appointments for our firm already in 2024 and yet another high-quality addition to our Leeds office as it goes from strength to strength.

‘Along with the recent promotion of nine of our colleagues here in Yorkshire, her arrival demonstrates the importance of our Leeds team in helping to fuel the continued growth of our business both regionally and nationally.

‘We are seeing increased demand for our property advice from clients across both the public and private sectors. Adding someone of Julie’s considerable experience will only serve to further improve the depth and breadth of legal expertise we can offer.’
