We assist our clients with challenging
decisions.
Our judicial review practice is the heart of our administrative
and public law work. We offer clients knowledge and expertise in
administrative law backed by a formidable litigation and dispute
resolution practice. Therefore, when the decisions of our clients
are attacked as being improper, illegal or unreasonable, we offer a
full range of services from agency and advice through to advocacy
in the Court of Session.
Judicial reviews often arrive unannounced and
unexpected.
Challenges to official actions can arise at short notice and in
quite diverse circumstances. Our clients benefit from our
substantial resources which allow us to quickly assemble a strong
and experienced team to best represent their interests. We are
contactable by you out with usual business hours, and as caveat
holders for a significant number of public bodies we are alerted
directly by the courts if a review is lodged against a client
without prior notice. Our clients can rest assured that
in or out of court their interests are being protected.
Although the right to judicial review is well-established, as
indeed are our services in this field, the basis upon which these
reviews can be raised is ever evolving. We ensure that our
expertise anticipates these developments and we use our
market-leading position to continually monitor proposed
legislation.
