Inverness-based Munro & Noble merges with Dingwall firm

Two Highland legal practices have merged to expand their law and estate agency services across the region.

Munro & Noble, which is headquartered in Inverness, has finalised a deal with George Street Law in Dingwall. The two firms will join forces under the Munro & Noble brand, in a move that takes the combined headcount to more than 50.

It will also see the launch of a new property shop at the Dingwall law practice when the tie-up finalises next month.

George Street Law’s team of five will join the Munro & Noble team and remain based at the local office, with additional legal support being offered from the firm’s HQ. The Inverness firm opened a second office, in Aviemore, last year following a significant increase in business in the region and currently hosts regular legal clinics in Thurso and Kinlochbervie.

The ground floor of the Dingwall office is now set to be renovated into an estate agency to expand the service north of the city. Senior partner at Munro & Noble, Bruce Miller, said: “A significant number of our clients are based in the outlying areas of the Highlands and it was apparent that we had to start expanding our services outwith the city to better service our clients’ needs.”

He added: “Although this was a strategic business decision for Munro & Noble, it was also an excellent fit for our future growth plans.” 0 Bruce Miller, senior partner at Inverness’ Munro & Noble
