As Shetland's best known law firm, we have provided legal services to our
many clients in Shetland, the UK and abroad for well over
50 years. The law changes as
rapidly as the needs of clients, and
modern technology is utilised by our firm to respond to these
requirements. At Tait & Peterson we are available whatever the call for
advice or assistance, whether the client is a firm, corporate body, club, charity or
private individual. Many matters require sensitive handling, especially where families suffer
bereavement, marital or financial problems. New businesses need guidance through the
pitfalls of commercial transactions and there are many other examples where legal advice
at an early stage can save considerable problems later.
The firm is well experienced in crofting and
agricultural matters and we have acted for most crofting estates in
Shetland, for generations. As Estate Agents we deal promptly with all types
of commercial and domestic properties.
Senior partner
is Eric S Peterson (LLb, Dip LP) who is also a
Specialist in Crofting Law, and
other experienced staff are employed
to help meet the needs of the various types of work
undertaken.
