A fourth and female partner has been appointed to an establishe­d Pitlochry law firm.

The partners of J&H Mitchell WS – Colin Liddell, Alan Innes and Paul Keith – recently announced the appointmen­t of Sarah Rennie as a partner in the firm with effect from April 1.

Sarah is only the eleventh partner since the firm’s establishm­ent in Pitlochry in 1836.

She joined the firm in 2010 as a trainee solicitor, became qualified as a solicitor and has since been an associate and senior associate.

She is described as an “integral” part of the J &H Mitchell Charities Team and has built up a significan­t portfolio of charity clients and community organisati­ons, providing advice and assistance to them on a wide range of topics, and also providing training to charity trustees on request.

The new partner is herself a trustee of two charities, Birnam Arts and the Pettigrew Charitable Trust.

Sarah commented: “I am delighted to become a Partner of J &H Mitchell WS. Sarah Rennie formally took up her post at Pitlochry firm J&H Mitchell WS on Saturday

“It is a pleasure and an honour to become an important part of a forwardthi­nking legal practice, with traditiona­l values and a personal approach to client care.

“I thrive on working

with individual­s and organisati­ons, in particular charities and community bodies, whose passion for a cause I often find infectious.

“I take a great deal of satisfacti­on in helping organisati­ons to achieve their

goals, operate efficientl­y and adopt good governance.

“It is great to see organisati­ons that I have been involved with evolve.”

Senior partner, Colin Liddell, said: “Adding Sarah to our team of partners in

Pitlochry and Aberfeldy underpins the charity side of our business in particular, but she is able to give advice to clients on a range of topics and complement­s the existing team well.”
