Peter Bournas (pictured) has joined Swaab as special counsel in its property, planning, and projects team, adding further depth to the firm’s capabilities in commercial property and development matters.

 
 

Bringing over two decades of experience in the legal and property sectors, Bournas has held several senior roles in private practice, commercial advisory, consultancy, and in-house positions within the airport industry.

In a statement, the commercial and family law firm said Bournas’ deep legal expertise and commercially focused mindset will support clients in “navigating complex matters” within both commercial and airport environments.

He brings broad expertise across a wide range of matters, including property, development, leasing, and revenue-generating transactions.

Mary Digiglio, managing partner at Swaab, stated how Bournas’ arrival strengthens the firm’s ability to support clients in property and infrastructure projects, while reinforcing Swaab’s strategic direction.

“Our firm con­tin­ues to grow in line with our strate­gic vision. Peter’s appoint­ment enhances our capac­i­ty to respond to evolv­ing client needs, while con­tin­u­ing to deliv­er out­stand­ing val­ue and ser­vice, with the cor­ner­stones of our Swaab Brand of Ser­vice and our Gen­eros­i­ty of Spir­it,” Digiglio said.

This news follows the firm’s promotion of six lawyers, including one to special counsel, two to senior associate, and three associates, earlier this month.
