Eversheds pick up the pieces of McGrigors construction team

London-based international law firm Eversheds has raided the construction team of UK rival McGrigors, just two months before the Scotland-headquartered firm will complete an arranged tie-in with Pinsent Masons.

Construction: Eversheds pounce on McGrigors team

The daring switch -- which will see the nine-strong team of partners, senior associates, other solicitors and staff leave Mcgrigors -- is believed to be the result of a conflict brought about by the Pinsents merger, according to The Lawyer newspaper.
