If you are faced with a claim, you require specialist advice and we can offer you the specialists you need to progress your claim to a successful conclusion.

Our specialist areas include: personal injury, catastrophic injury, disease, abuse, property, product liability, medical negligence and professional indemnity.

With BTO, you will also have access to one of the largest groupings of Solicitor Advocates at a single firm in Scotland. This in-house team enables us to provide you with a seamless one-stop shop driving down your costs as a result.

Our team also includes accredited civil and commercial mediators and we anticipate that mediation will continue to be a significant growth area in the coming years.

Mediations work in so many cases because they allow parties to find their own resolutions and bring the dispute to a conclusion. This has many benefits for both parties, including finding creative solutions for you that the court would not be able to order.
