Honest assessment of your position

How we help

Disputes we resolve

Commercial litigation

Contract breaches, partnership fallouts, shareholder and supplier disputes – fought in the sheriff courts and the Court of Session.

Property disputes

Boundaries, title conditions, servitudes, landlord and tenant disagreements and neighbour disputes – resolved with the title, not the temperature.

Contract disputes

When the other side will not perform, pay or deliver – we enforce your rights and defend claims made against you.

Negotiation and mediation

Most disputes settle. We negotiate from strength and use mediation where it serves you – litigation is the tool, not the goal.

Litigation experience that changes outcomes

Oracle Law was founded by John Carruthers, a solicitor advocate with rights of audience in Scotland’s higher courts and over thirty years of commercial litigation behind him. That matters in two ways. When your case needs to be fought, it is prepared and argued by someone who does this for a living. And when it should settle, the other side knows we are ready if it does not.

We act for companies, SMEs, charities and individuals – and we are regularly instructed by other solicitors and accountants for their own clients, which tells you what our peers think of our work.

Costs and strategy, agreed upfront

Litigation should always be a commercial decision. At the first meeting we give you an honest assessment: the strength of your position, the realistic outcomes, and what each route costs. Then you decide, fully informed.

A winning party usually recovers a proportion of costs from the loser, though rarely all of them.

Yes. Most contract and payment claims in Scotland prescribe after five years, and some claims have much shorter windows. If you think you have a claim, take advice early – waiting can extinguish it entirely.

A solicitor with additional rights of audience in Scotland’s higher courts – the Court of Session and beyond – where ordinary solicitors must instruct counsel. It means the person who knows your case can argue it at every level, which is often faster and more cost-effective.

Sometimes. Mediation can be quick, private and cheap, and it preserves business relationships. It works best when both sides genuinely want a resolution. We advise honestly on whether it suits your dispute or would simply hand the other side a delay.
