Judith Higson, Head of Family Law has shared her latest article with the Amicable Divorce Network, exploring child relocation and international child abduction in Scotland.

The article looks at the legal considerations surrounding relocation within Scotland, elsewhere in the UK and internationally, as well as the role of parental responsibilities and rights, the Hague Convention and applications for the return of children.

Scullion LAW was delighted to work with Hamilton Park as sponsor of the historic Lanark Silver Bell, one of the biggest and most prestigious races of the season. It was a genuine honour to play a part in such a special occasion and to celebrate a race with such a remarkable history.

The atmosphere throughout the day was fantastic. We had the pleasure of welcoming clients, colleagues, friends and guests, meeting plenty of familiar faces and making some new connections along the way.

We were also hard to miss around the racecourse, with two Scullion LAW gazebos and our Scullion LIVING wrapped taxi adding a little extra presence to the occasion! 🚕🎉

A huge thank you to everyone at Hamilton Park who helped make the event such a success, and to everyone who joined us for a memorable day of racing, hospitality and great company.

🚦 Does your job depend on a clean driving licence?

Many do — far more than people realise. In Scotland, roles in sales, healthcare, and senior management often require no endorsements on your record.

Even a single conviction for speeding, drink driving, or dangerous driving can:

✔ Trigger disciplinary action
✔ Lead to suspension
✔ Result in dismissal

The result? Your company car is gone, and so is your job.

We’ve successfully defended clients in these high-stakes situations — finding procedural errors, negotiating reduced penalties, and in some cases, avoiding conviction altogether.

📢 If your career depends on your licence, don’t wait.

⚖️ Facing criminal charges in Scotland?

The court process can be overwhelming — but the right defence can change the outcome. Scullion LAW regularly defends cases from Sheriff Court matters to complex High Court trials.

📢 Whether you’re innocent or made a mistake, your defence must start early.

📝 If illness or injury stops you making decisions, who steps in?

Without a Power of Attorney (POA), your family may need a costly, time-consuming court order.

📌 Hypothetical example: You’re in hospital after an accident. Your spouse can’t access your bank account to pay the mortgage — because no POA exists.
