    2026 | Band 1 | 14 Years Ranked

    Axiom Advocates is widely regarded as the leading stable at the Scottish Bar for restructuring and insolvency matters. It houses a number of talented advocates who are regularly called upon to represent liquidators, administrators, distressed companies and trustees, among other parties, in a wide range of insolvency applications and in director disqualification proceedings. Members are also adept at advising their clients on non-contentious insolvency matters such as strategic planning and distressed connections. Members of the stable recently acted for Dobbies Garden Centres, securing the Court of Session's sanction for a contested restructuring plan. One instructing solicitor calls Axiom Advocates "the best commercial stable in Scotland," while another praises the stable's "exceptional knowledge and commercial awareness."

    The practice manager is Lesley Flynn.
