Peacock Johnston has built a formidable reputation over the past 30 years as all-round litigation specialists. We frequently receive referrals to deal with cases that others deem too difficult to handle.
A key strength is our versatility and breadth of experience in handling the most complex and challenging litigation, Hearing and Inquiries.

The firm’s position in a national context was underlined when Peacock Johnston were given the Award of ‘Litigation Firm of the Year’ for 2011 in the prestigious Law Awards of Scotland.
Our litigation team at Peacock Johnston is capable of applying our skills to all areas of litigation for commercial clients and businesses, including contract disputes, insurance disputes and damages’ claims.

We fully appreciate that our business clients are seeking a commercial solution that works, and our comprehensive and diligent attitude often involves us advising on how best to avoid future commercial disputes.
LICENSING APPEALS
Refusal of a license application acts as a formidable barrier for both individuals and companies seeking to enter a broad range of service provision. As a result, it is important to be appropriately represented when seeking to appeal a decision made by one of the Licensing Boards throughout Scotland.
Our team at Peacock Johnston can provide specialist advice on licensing appeals, where there are very strict time limits and statutory grounds for bringing appeals, and may arrange representation at Licensing Board Hearings where necessary.
