Professional Liability

When people enter into contracts, they expect to get what they bargain for. When they don't get what they bargain for, they expect a remedy.

But for the professional person, life is not so straightforward. No matter the care and effort of the professional, the disappointed client is a fact of life. Claims for damages and complaints to professional bodies are a permanent part of the landscape. Axiom has particular expertise in guiding those who have to cross that landscape.

Members of Axiom have conducted many of the leading and most challenging Scottish cases in this field - cases that have often had a high profile or been of a sensitive nature. In some cases, the parties have recognised that mediation sometimes offers a better solution than litigation and Axiom members can assist in that process too.

Members have acted for and against solicitors, advocates, clinicians, engineers, architects, construction professionals, surveyors, accountants and other financial professionals. We have acted for disciplinary bodies and for those being disciplined.

Therefore, whether dealing with disciplinary complaints or liability claims, Axiom can call upon a wealth of experience in order to provide the service best suited to the demands of the individual case.
