Scotland’s legal market is strong with 3 main hubs – Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen. There has been significant consolidation in the market in line with the rest of the UK and the global market.
The last 5 years has seen mergers of historic Scottish legal firms with global law firms and/or mergers of significant practices within the Scottish legal market.
The Scotland market presents a varied range of law firms, including sole practitioners, boutique firms, established national firms and international heavyweights.
Work quality at the leading firms is very high and there is an appetite to recruit lawyers from established UK legal hubs wishing to relocate.
