Introduction
The Legal Defence
Union (LDU) exists for the specific purpose of promoting and
protecting the welfare of solicitors in Scotland.
It is committed to
protecting the interests of all solicitors in Scotland, whether engaged in
court, conveyancing or commercial work, in town or country, and in all
areas of activity.
At a wider level,
the LDU aims to promote the interests and defence of solicitors in
Parliament, in the media and to the general public.
Chairman's Statement
Lawyers have
always prided themselves on their commitment to helping clients from all
levels of society, whatever their circumstances or their problems. The
Legal Profession has been perhaps a little slow in providing an
independent advice agency for its own members.
Lawyers sometimes
need lawyers! It is good professionalism to take advice.
We are committed
to the idea of prompt, friendly, confidential and skilled advice to all
solicitors in Scotland.
James A.
McCann, Chairman
Legal Defence Union
