Newcomer Kathy Mylrea will be involved in growing and developing the environment and health and safety aspects of CMS Cameron McKenna’s safety, health, environment and products (SHEP) practice.
The appointment marks Mylrea’s second stint with the firm. She previously practised at McKenna & Co, one of the firms that merged to form CMS Cameron McKenna.
