The previous Lord of Balvaird, Alexander Murray, 9th Earl of Mansfield, who had inherited the title from his father William Murray, 8th Earl of Mansfield (died in 2015)[6] disponed the title by deed of assignation to Brady Brim-DeForest of Balvaird Castle, current Baron of Balvaird in 2017.

Brady Brim-DeForest of Balvaird Castle, Baron of Balvaird (born 5 March 1984) is the elder son of Bret DeForest and Shannon Read Brim.

By deed of assignation in 2017 he succeeded as Baron of Balvaird (created 1623 and 1673) and acknowledged in the territorial designation “Brim-DeForest of Balvaird Castle” by the Lord Lyon, for the family seat of the same name in the Ochil Hills of Perthshire.
