As a dispute resolution business fortunate to count
professionals, professional organisations and partnerships amongst
our clients, we are particularly well placed to help if those
business relationships encounter difficulties. Our clients include
architects, accountants, medical practices, construction businesses
and other solicitors, and smaller limited companies across a range
of business sectors. Drawing on our combined experience of
professional practice, commercial litigation and employment law, we
have an unparalelled breadth and depth of knowledge to offer
principals and shareholders to assist them manage their own
business disputes.
We apply a solution-driven approach.
Our approach is solution-driven, and we strive to secure the
best practical result for our clients as early as possible, by
negotiation and mediation. Douglas Russell, David Hughes and Diane
McGowan are certified and experienced as mediators, and can act in
that role, or advise one party in the context of a mediation
itself. We work pro-actively to achieve the best lasting solution
for our clients, even in the most difficult of circumstances.
But we litigate where necessary.
When we act in partnership disputes, litigation rarely results.
However, if it does, we have the full weight of our dispute
resolution department, led by Michael Jones QC, to represent our
clients. This includes our Advocacy Unit, who have rights of
audience in all courts in Scotland.
