Martin said: "The dynamics of the commercial property market have evolved so much since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The team at Lindsays have earned great praise for their work advising businesses with all kinds of issues as the world has shifted constantly in the past two-and-a-half years.
"Changes to the way we work and live are shaping commercial property demands - from offices to restaurants, shops to warehousing. These have created challenges to overcome and opportunities to seize. The need for carefully considered advice in this respect has never been greater.
"That's why I am so excited to have joined the team at Lindsays. I am looking forward to working with investors and businesses to ensure they are fit for the future."
Derek Nash, Partner and Head of our Commercial Property team, said: "I am pleased to welcome Martin to our team, along with our other new colleagues. His background advising across a range of sectors will provide great insight and advice for our clients.
"This is another strong appointment for us as we support increasing numbers of people and organisations with property matters at what is a crucial time for many. As a firm, we are committed to attracting and retaining high-calibre professionals, of which Martin is certainly one."
