Kevin has joined DTM Legal following more than 18 years at a prominent regional law firm.

Commenting on his appointment, Kevin said:
“DTM Legal has built a strong reputation for delivering commercially focused legal advice with a personal touch. I’m excited to join the team and contribute to the firm’s continued success in the commercial property sector. I look forward to supporting our clients across their property portfolios and helping them to navigate opportunities and challenges with confidence.”
Kevin’s notable experience includes acting for the vendor on the sale of the iconic Cunard Building in Liverpool to Liverpool City Council, advising on a high-value letting to Marks & Spencer completed in just two weeks, and supporting the establishment of a national AI innovation lab in Liverpool—a project expected to bring over 1,000 jobs to the city.
