Dispelling The Myths About Practising in Scotland
If you are English-qualified, don't believe all the myths you hear about it being difficult to come and practice law in Scotland. With English business now accounting for more than 20% of our income and plans to make that grow to at least 50%, if you’re thinking about a career move to Scotland, there may be a few more pieces of information needed to help you make up your mind.
From our offices in Glasgow and Edinburgh we continue to grow with clients across the length and breadth of the UK.
