At Balfour + Manson we have considerable experience and resolution of professional negligence claims for both claimants and professionals who have been the subject of a claim. Our team of professional negligence solicitors support businesses across Scotland and has strong litigation and mediation skills and is able to call on the firm’s in-house Solicitor Advocates.
The current economic climate may well lead to an increase in the number of claims against professionals, requiring resolution in an economic manner in a particularly complicated area of the law. Clients, both claimants and defenders, naturally wish to preserve confidentiality and to see matters resolved without undue dislocation to business, and where possible, to retain the professional relationship. We are well used to handling professional negligence claims against accountants, solicitors, architects and surveyors, who all have a strong interest in maintaining their professional reputation and their clientele.
Our team of professional negligence lawyers has advised in a number of claims of high value and technical difficulty in recent years.
The team regularly receive instructions on behalf of Royal & Sun Alliance, the lead insurers under the Law Society of Scotland master policy for professional indemnity insurance, as well as from other insurers and claimants in cases involving a wide range of professions.
Lead partner David Flint has been recognised by both Legal 500 2010 and Legal Experts 2010.
