History

Burnett & Reid was first established by William Burnett on 11 July 1754, when Burnett was fully admitted to membership of Society of Advocates.[4] William was eventually succeeded in the business by his sixth son, Thomas Burnett, who joined the business in 1796,[4] and in turn was joined in 1823 by his son, Newell Burnett.[4]

Following the death of his father, Newell Burnett assumed John Reid as a partner at which point the firm first began trading under the name of "Burnett & Reid".[4]
