Our team has in-depth knowledge of all forms of partnership law and advises a range of clients, from entrepreneurs looking to set up a partnership to private equity investment funds looking to use a limited partnership as their preferred structure.

Our team has a proven track record advising professional services firms including accountants, IFAs and estate agencies, with a particular focus on the healthcare sector. In addition we advise farming partnerships and partnerships in the retail and food & drink industries.

We also frequently advise on limited partnerships and their use as private equity funds, property investment funds (including student accommodation) and in connection with central asset reserves for pension schemes. Our team has contributed towards consultations on proposed new legislation in the area of Scottish limited partnerships.

In addition, we advise on a significant number of partnership matters relating to law firms and also give specialist opinions on complex partnership problems for these law firms' clients.
