Arbitration

PI arbitration a viable alternative to litigation in Scotland

Personal injury arbitration may become a viable alternative to litigation in the Scottish courts, according to Clyde & Co. The law firm noted that although arbitration has long been an option in Scotland, it has in the past been viewed as a slow, expensive process, to the extent that it was rarely used. The Arbitration (Scotland) Act 2010 sought to change that, bringing procedures more in line with England.
