We have significant experience in pursuing professional negligence claims against a range of professional advisors, including solicitors, surveyors, architects, engineers and accountants.
Clients we have acted for include financial institutions, companies, family businesses and individuals who have each suffered a loss as a result of defective professional advice.
Where appropriate, we regularly deploy our alternative dispute resolution experience and, where necessary, run cases through Sheriff Courts throughout Scotland and at the Court of Session in Edinburgh, all to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
At each stage of the process, we will provide you with clear advice on:
- Your prospects of success
- The estimated value of your claim
- The claim process and timescales
- The costs involved in pursuing your claim
We can adopt a creative approach to funding, are willing to share risk with our clients and work closely with a panel of trusted litigation funders who can provide finance for claims.
These funding solutions relieve the strain on clients’ cash flow and working capital, often making claims financially viable that otherwise would simply not be possible. They are particularly well-suited to the insolvency market.
