Building on Gordon Brough's "The Law of Partnership" (1994), Laura
McGregor brings several new dimensions of invaluable information on Scottish
partnership law, which academics and lawyers will find of great interest in
their work.
Few academic articles have been published on partnership law in Scotland,
making this a sometimes obscure and unclear area of the law. Few books are
also published on this subject. An expert in the areas of partnership and
commercial law, Laura McGregor has studied all new case law, both Scottish
and English, as well as recent statutory developments, which influence the
law and how it should be interpreted. With characteristic clarity and
authority, she brings us the most thorough text on partnerships in Scotland
that has been seen in several decades.
Features:
the Limited Liability Partnership Act 2000
Partnerships (Prosecutions) (Scotland) Act 2013
the repeal of the Business Names Act 1985, replaced by the Companies Act
2006, and its implications for Scots law
a thorough analysis of the history of partnership law in Scots and its
significance on contemporary law
a conceptual framework for Scottish partnership law
