Cardiff and London based legal firm, Capital Law, has added to its Board with the appointment of Non-Executive Director, David Williams, a private equity specialist.
Capital comprises two businesses – a commercial law firm and a people consultancy. The business was founded 12 years ago by three founder partners and has since grown to comprise over 140 staff.
Previously Williams was a senior partner at Dunedin Capital, and before that at Graphite Capital. His expertise will add much to Capital’s Board and its planning for continued growth.
Williams has sat on a number of boards over the years as an investor. His understanding of how companies work will be invaluable to the Capital businesses as they tailor what they do to accurately suit clients.
Elin Pinnell, Managing Partner of Capital Law, says: “We’re half way through the delivery of our first structured business plan ending in 2020, so we have started thinking about how our business will look up to 2025. Successful private equity has a powerful record of substantially improving businesses, so we are delighted that David’s long experience and expertise will help us make what we do better and stronger for our clients.”
Williams says: “I have known Capital Law, principally through their private equity team, but also their litigation and property lawyers, for almost ten years. I have always liked what they do and the way that they do it, and am very excited at the prospect of working with the Board as they develop the business in what is likely to be quite a challenging environment over the coming years. The major benefit is how committed the whole firm is to developing and changing.”
