Handling Disputes In Scotland - Shepherd and Wedderburn Webinar

Описание: At Shepherd and Wedderburn, we specialise in resolving disputes.

Knowledge of the courts and the rules they apply is essential to what we do.

The work we do ranges from advising our clients on what is likely to happen if they take a certain course of action, assessing the prospects of their case, negotiating a solution on their behalf and/or representing them in formal mediation, court or arbitration proceedings.

We work in all of the courts in Scotland, appearing ourselves in the Sheriff Courts, instructing Advocates and our own Solicitor Advocates to appear in the Court of Session and appearing
in the Scottish Land Court and Lands Tribunal for Scotland.

The majority of our clients’ disputes are heard by the Court of Session and so we focus in this guide on Court of Session procedure and in particular on Commercial Actions.

Having in-house Solicitor Advocates (who have rights of audience in our higher courts) as well as an excellent working relationship with the Scottish Bar, and knowing which Advocate to instruct for which piece of work, means optimum representation for our clients.

In this webinar we provide a high-level overview of Scottish civil procedure; essential knowledge in considering how best to handle disputes in Scotland. Contact our team for more information.
