Yorkshire law firm Gordons has promoted the head of its regulatory team to partner in recognition of his significant contribution to the firm’s ongoing development.
Andrew Logan joined the firm two years ago from telecommunications giant BT. Logan has more than 15 years of experience as a regulatory lawyer gained working both in-house and for a national law firm.
At Leeds- and Bradford-based Gordons, he has successfully led a team advising clients on a range of regulatory issues. These include environmental, health and safety, data protection, product compliance, criminal investigations, business investigations and court proceedings.
At present, Logan and his team are advising many of Gordons’s clients on safe ‘back to work’ policies and procedures necessitated by the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.
Commenting on his promotion, Logan said: “We have a diverse range of clients at Gordons operating in a variety of sectors, each with their own regulatory challenges.”
“Having worked in-house I understand the need to manage these in a way which allows clients to concentrate on running their businesses. There are lots of opportunities for us to develop this part of the Gordons practice.”
Gordons clients include retailers B&M, Iceland, Morrisons and Wren Kitchens; construction and high performance materials manufacturer Saint Gobain; international brewers Molson Coors; and the world’s largest electrical heating business Glen Dimplex.
Gordons managing partner Paul Ayre added: “Andrew has really helped to drive the growth of our regulatory offer. He deserves to become a partner.”
