Family Law Specialists Join Scottish Firm

Two family law specialists have joined Wright, Johnston & Mackenzie LLP, marking a considerable expansion of the firm’s family law offering.

Joining from Digby Brown, Roger Mackenzie and Emma Letham bring extensive experience to the table, complementing the wide range of family law services currently offered by WJM, from divorce and separation to child custody and prenuptial agreements.

Roger, who joins WJM as Partner, has specialised in family law since 2005, and led Digby Brown’s family law and adoption practice from 2015. His experience includes acting for individuals in divorce, asset protection, child related matters and prenuptial agreements.

Roger is recognised in the current edition of The Legal 500 Guide to the UK Legal Profession, one of the leading independent guides to the sector, which describes him as ‘compassionate and dedicated’.

Emma, who joins WJM as a Senior Solicitor, moved into the field of family law in 2016, and now deals with all aspects of family law. A member of the Family Law Association, she has a keen interest in cases dealing with the welfare of children.

Roger and Emma join Tom Quail, who currently heads up WJM’s family law team. With over 20 years’ experience, he specialises in financial issues on separation for both married and cohabiting couples.

Tom said: “We’re delighted to have Roger and Emma join WJM. Their combined experience covers a great deal of areas and really complements the services WJM currently offers to family law clients.

“They’ll undoubtedly be a fantastic asset to the family law team and indeed to the firm as a whole.”
