Walker Morris strengthens Planning & Infrastructure Consents and Pensions teams with two senior appointments
"Walker Morris appoints David Wood to its Planning & Infrastructure Consents team and Danny Fowler to its Pensions team."
David Wood joins Walker Morris from Hogan Lovells, where he spent more than 13 years advising on major development and infrastructure projects. His experience encompasses large-scale urban regeneration schemes, commercial and residential development, and nationally significant infrastructure projects, including development consent order (DCO) applications. Recognised by Chambers & Partners and Legal 500 for his technical expertise and commercial approach, David will strengthen the Planning & Infrastructure Consents team and support clients across the full lifecycle of development, from early-stage strategy and consenting through to delivery and contentious matters.
Danny Fowler joins the Pensions team from Fieldfisher, bringing experience advising employers and trustees on complex pensions matters. Prior to Fieldfisher he spent eight years at PwC’s Pensions Legal Practice, working on a broad range of high-profile and technically challenging issues, including scheme interpretation disputes, employer insolvencies, and global restructurings. Danny has advised major corporate and public sector organisations and is recognised for his strong technical expertise and client-focused approach; at Walker Morris he will help support the continued growth of the firm’s pensions practice and enhance its client offering nationwide.
