Top Ten Hot 100 UK Rating For Kit Stenning

Kit Stenning, head of the corporate team in the London office of McClure Naismith LLP, has been rated one of the top ten corporate lawyers in the UK in the ‘Hot 100’ feature compiled by leading trade title, The Lawyer.

The ‘Hot 100’ features the UK’s top lawyers in various fields with Kit Stenning ranking alongside major London firms in the corporate section, and being the only lawyer from a Scottish firm to be named in this specialism.

The Lawyer said: ““Amidst the deepest recession in living memory, the PLUS market has been one of the few success stories. McClure Naismith’s small but perfectly formed team, led by Kit Stenning, was ahead of the game in 2009. (His) stand out deal was February’s entry of Kuwaiti property company Rak real estate in a £569m deal. With several more placements waiting in his in-tray, Stenning is perfectly placed for 2010.”

Commenting Kit Stenning said: “I am delighted but it is a team effort and I would like to pay tribute to my colleagues, both in London and Scotland, who have all played a key role in our success. McClure Naismith has a growing reputation in London’s corporate community for delivering high quality, cost-effective deals advice. As deals begin to return, and with this ranking now on our credentials, we hope to be invited to tender for even more transactions”.

Alan Thomson, Chairman of McClure Naismith, added: “It is a great achievement for Kit and for the firm. McClure Naismith has won a number of prestigious new clients recently, including British Waterways Scotland, and there is a good pipeline of work for 2010. The firm is in good shape, and we are focused on growing the business”.
