Arnot Manderson Advocates held its second court skills workshop in conjunction with the Scottish Young Lawyers Association on 26 November.  32 participants undertook a series of practical court skills seminars and workshops with the assistance of advocates from the stable.  91% of the participants rated the workshop as ‘excellent’.

Participant comments included:

Very practical insight into taking evidence.  Easily transferable into practice
I found having the chance to stand up and ask question, in addition to hearing all the guidance exceptionally helpful.  It really gave me the chance to feel what worked in practice.

Arnot Manderson Advocates will be hosting further advocacy skills workshops in 2013. We would also be happy to talk about specific training needs with individual firms and organisations.
