Dentons partner appointed as chair
Bryan Johnston, a partner in Dentons’ London office, has been appointed as the next chair of the Property Litigation Association (PLA)
Bryan, who heads Dentons’ property litigation team, takes over the role from Shakespeare Martineau partner Martin Edwards, and is the PLA’s 24th chairman since the organisation’s establishment in 1995. In addition to Bryan’s appointment, Pemberton Greenish partner Kerry Glanville has also taken on the role of the PLA’s deputy chair.
At the annual PLA dinner on 15 November, Bryan said: ‘We must be relentless in our pursuit of law reform. We need to agitate for change. If we do not, then this affects confidence in our law and the credibility of our legal system.’
