Gordons promotes two to partner

Monday 14th April 2025

Gordons has welcomed two new partners within its construction and property disputes practices.

Mark Smith joined our construction team last November from Addleshaw Goddard. He has more than 25 years’ experience and specialises in construction and engineering disputes, risk management and dispute avoidance.

Property disputes lawyer Paul Joyce joined us from Womble Bond Dickinson last July. He has specialised in property litigation for 13 years and has led the firm’s property disputes team since his arrival.

Commenting on their promotions, Gordons’ managing partner, Victoria Davey, said: “Mark and Paul have both made a significant positive impact since they joined the firm, benefitting clients and colleagues alike.

“They are progressive lawyers who consistently provide commercially astute, practical advice whilst building enduring client relationships, all traits distinct to Gordons’ culture.

“We now look forward to them playing an even greater role within the firm’s leadership team as our construction and property disputes practices evolve.”
