The merged business will have 24 partners and more than 240 staff and will trade under the Blackadders LLP banner.

In the past year, the Dundee-headquartered firm has acquired Condies of Perth and Adam Cochran & Co of Aberdeen. It now has offices in Aberdeen, Arbroath, Dundee, Edinburgh, Forfar and Perth.

Blackadders managing partner Johnston Clark said: “We are continuously working to expand and improve our service to clients and the merger with Marjory MacDonald Solicitors will assist us in this.”

MacDonald added: “I share with Blackadders a vision of the highest quality of advice and service to clients and the merger will provide great synergies.”
