Harry Rowe (pictured), now partner, brings over ten years of experience advising multinational corporations and SMEs on trade mark law. He is known for his work across sectors including financial services and life sciences. ‘It’s a privilege to be recognised in this way and to continue supporting our clients at a strategic level,’ he said.

A former engineer at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory, he holds a master’s in aerospace engineering from Cambridge. ‘I’m excited to help shape the future of the firm and contribute to its growth,’ he said.

Senior equity partner Martin MacLean praised all four as ‘incredibly talented attorneys’ whose work is ‘an immense asset to our firm’.
