Managing Partner
Margaret Ellison
Advises founders, boards and senior executives on the decisions that shape a company and a career.
Margaret leads the firm and its business and employment groups. She has advised owner-managed companies through more than sixty acquisitions and disposals, and is often the first call when a founder is deciding how to bring in a partner or investor.
