Based in the firm’s Glasgow office, Ms Turner, an employment law specialist, joins Morton Fraser from Dentons, where she worked for more than nine years.

Morton Fraser’s employment law team has more Law Society-accredited specialists than any other team in Scotland and advises on a range of issues including unfair dismissal, redundancy, settlement agreements, executive dismissals and departures and discrimination as well as on disciplinary and grievance issues.

Innes Clark, partner and head of the employment team, said: “As one of the leading employment law teams in Scotland we want to ensure that we have the best team to meet the needs of our clients.

“Elise’s knowledge and expertise means she is the perfect fit and she will be integral to our plans to continue to grow this area of the firm over the coming months.”

Ms Turner added: “Morton Fraser’s employment team has a fantastic reputation and I’m really excited to join a team and firm that is known for its quality work and which has an ambitious strategy and plans for growth.

“The fact that Morton Fraser is also adopting agile working practices as well as the friendly open nature of the firm is also part of what attracted me to join the team.”
