Our I&E practice expands with new partner appointment

Shane joins us from DWF, where he led on the real estate energy aspects for the UK energy team, working closely with other international energy specialists within the sector. With over 20 years of experience, Shane has advised on all aspects of real estate and land rights related to energy, waste, telecoms, and infrastructure projects and transactions.

We’ve doubled the size of our I&E team in the last three years, and this news follows the recent appointment of our Partner Lee Gordon earlier this year. Shane’s role will complement and support the continued growth of our I&E team and support the development of our wider consenting practice.

Jeanette Burgess, Managing Partner comments: “With Shane joining the firm, we gain a significant asset in his market-leading expertise, which will be crucial for driving continued growth in our I&E team. His arrival enables us to strengthen and develop our existing client offering by leveraging his extensive network and deep sector knowledge.”

Shane adds: “It’s an exciting time to be joining Walker Morris, one of the UK’s few independent law firms outside the City with a first-rate Infrastructure & Energy team. One of the key reasons for my move is the unique culture and level of autonomy that Walker Morris offers. I’m excited to work alongside the current I&E team and help deliver on the practice area’s ambitious growth plans.”
