Thorntons Law LLP‘s practice is well-known for its mediation capabilities. Practice head Sandra Sutherland divides her time between Arbroath, Dundee and Montrose, and specialises in complex divorce cases. In Edinburgh, Lucy Metcalf handles both financial issues and difficult child cases, including adoption work. Perth’s Angela Wipat is a key name for nuptial and cohabitation agreements.

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘Thorntons have a presence in multiple locations in the North East of Scotland which I have found helpful. They have a wide range of experienced partners to draw upon. From the outset I have found the Thornton's team to be compassionate and proactive.’

  • ‘I have worked closely with Sandra Sutherland. While sympathetic she has been totally professional, business like, and tenacious in seeking the best outcome possible for me in what has been described as an unusual situation. I have appreciated her calmness and reassurance in what has been a very distressing time. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking help with family law.'
