MCKINSTRY TEAM

Graeme is stepping down from his appointment as Chairman

May 09, 2022

On 1 October 1984 Graeme established The McKinstry Company. Since that time, Graeme has overseen the development and consolidation of the practice from a predominately litigation service to a thriving High Street practice providing legal services across a variety of sectors. He did so as founder and Senior Partner and over the past 4 years, following his retirement from the Partnership, as Chairman.

Having given up his practising certificate and retired as a solicitor two years ago, Graeme has decided that the time is right for him now to step down as Chairman. On announcing this decision, Managing Partner, Robert Honeyman commented: -

           “I started with The McKinstry Company 25 years ago when Graeme saw something in me that encouraged him to offer me a traineeship to start my legal career. It has been a great personal and professional privilege to work alongside Graeme these past 25 years. Following his retirement as a Partner, I stepped into his shoes as Managing Partner to lead the Firm that he established. Over the past four years Graeme’s support and advice has been invaluable to me and my Partners to continue to drive the Firm forward to ensure its evolution and adhering to its vision: - to be the premier legal advisers in South West Scotland.

           The Partners and I wish to thank Graeme for all his support and hard work as Chairman in all aspects of the practice, in particular in ensuring a smooth transition following his retirement as a Partner.”

 

Graeme is stepping down from his appointment as Chairman to concentrate on developing his Consultancy – McKinstry Practice Management – which advises solicitors throughout Scotland on a range of management and related issues.
