In-house lawyers make a critical contribution to the success of the companies and organisations that employ them. We’re proud to represent and support the large number of Scottish solicitors working in-house.
The profile of the expanding and important community of in-house lawyers is extremely diverse. Scottish in-house lawyers can be found across every sector, performing a wide range of roles and in every corner of Scotland (and beyond). With diversity comes complexity and the needs, challenges and working environments of in-house lawyers can differ greatly from individual to individual. However, the rewards of being an in-house lawyers are many.
Our in-house members play an important role in providing advice which is closely attuned to the needs and strategies of the large number of organisations which employ them.

If you work in-house, we want to hear from you. There are lots of ways to get in touch.
