When a loved one dies because of someone else's negligence, understanding your rights can feel overwhelming.

As Nicola Edgar, Partner at MFMac, explains, a loss of society claim can provide financial recognition of the impact a wrongful death has on family members. Knowing who can claim, what evidence is required and how courts assess these cases is an important first step.

What if the way evidence is gathered becomes just as important as the evidence itself?

As Fiona Sasan, Partner at MFMac, explores, Scottish family courts are increasingly examining not only what evidence proves, but what the act of gathering it may reveal about a relationship.

Should family courts take a closer look at the methods used to obtain evidence, particularly where those methods resemble the very behaviours alleged to be abusive?

In this article, Lucia Clark examines whether family law should give greater weight to domestic abuse when determining financial settlements, and how approaches to this issue differ in England and Scotland. The article also considers the reforms currently being discussed and what they could mean in practice.

Celebrating South Asian Heritage Month at MFMac

This year, we marked South Asian Heritage Month with a series of events across our Edinburgh and Glasgow offices, inspired by the theme Unity in Diversity.

From Bollywood dance and yoga sessions to insightful talks from Dr Saqib Razzaq from Colourful Heritage, colleagues came together to learn, connect and celebrate the rich cultures, histories and contributions of South Asian communities. We also enjoyed beautiful henna art by Amina khan from Henna Pop, fantastic South Asian food and meaningful conversations throughout the month.

Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the celebrations such a success.

Last chance to apply. Applications for MFMac’s 2028 traineeships close on 17 July.

See what Natalia has to say about her experience at MFMac:

"My time at MFMac has been both rewarding and enjoyable. Having previously worked in the firm's Client Onboarding Team, it has been great to return as a trainee and build experience across both Real Estate and Corporate.

The exposure to high-quality work, level of support from colleagues and opportunities to get involved in initiatives such as the firm's run club - which has been a great motivator alongside my Ironman training - have made it a valuable place to develop my career. I am looking forward to continuing to learn and grow throughout the rest of my traineeship."

– Natalia Rucka, Trainee Solicitor at MFMac

Inspiring the next generation of legal talent.

Over the past two weeks, we welcomed 17 students to our Glasgow and Edinburgh offices through our PRIME COMMITMENT work experience programme.

From learning about different practice areas and career paths to developing new skills and meeting colleagues from across the firm, students had the opportunity to gain a real insight into life at a law firm and the many routes into the profession.

A huge thank you to our colleagues, clients and contacts who helped make the programme possible. We wish all of our students the very best for the future.

One of the key themes in the latest edition of The View is internal transformation.

Digital transformation is a top priority for 38.5% of Scottish business leaders.
By contrast, just 4.8% say entering new markets is a priority, while 66% do not plan to increase employee numbers in the next six months.

The findings suggest many firms are focused on improving the engine: sharper operations, stronger systems and better efficiency before pursuing expansion.
