Leading national law firm Mills & Reeve has recruited Clare Grice from Squire Sanders to head up its pensions team.
Clare, who will be based in the firm’s Birmingham office and joins as a partner, will develop a centre of excellence for the provision of pension law at the firm, as well as further enhancing its employment offering and cementing Mills & Reeve’s reputation as a leading employment practice.
An experienced pensions lawyer, Clare advises trustee boards of all sizes of occupational pension schemes, as well as corporate sponsors. She specialises in a broad range of pensions law work, including establishing new schemes, winding up schemes, scheme mergers, benefit design changes, risk-management and liability reduction exercises.
Clare, a full member of the Association of Pensions Lawyers, has been highlighted as “one to watch” by Legal 500 and Chambers UK notes she “garners praise from both clients and peers”.
Steve Allen, Mills & Reeve partner and head of the Birmingham office, said: “We’re delighted to be able to welcome Clare to the firm. Her experience and expertise is a further boost for our preeminent employment team and their clients.”
