Scullion LAW are delighted to strengthen their court department with the internal promotion of Solicitor Advocate, Urfan Dar to Senior Associate & the hire of two external appointments.
The Criminal and Road Traffic Departments at Scullion LAW have worked tirelessly behind the scenes throughout the pandemic, delivering consistently good results for clients (despite only certain hub courts being open for business). They put a new sales process in place and are following a very tight plan which has enabled the firm to invest in and strengthen the team at a time when many of our competitors are cutting back.
Urfan is delighted to be recognised for his efforts “It has been an honour and a privilege to work with Scullion LAW this year through one of the most unusual and testing times in living memory. The team made me feel welcome from the outset and I settled in very quickly due to the affable and outgoing office environment. Working from home has presented its own challenges but the investment in people and resources has allowed the firm to deliver professional results from any location. The versatility and support has allowed the firm to flourish despite the interruption earlier in the year due to COVID-19. Notwithstanding the challenges that has presented, the team have really pulled together to deliver an excellent service to clients and continue to represent individuals at every level in the district, sheriff and High Court. I am humbled to be recognised for my contribution in such a short and challenging space of time and welcome the endorsement of my work. I shall continue to seek to positively contribute to the success of the firm in the times ahead.”
Managing Director Nicholas Scullion quotes ‘Urfan, is a brilliant Solicitor Advocate and he has delivered significant results since joining Scullion LAW at the beginning of the year. He is a great person to work with and we are delighted to recognise his contribution to the continued success of the firm. His promotion to Senior Associate is effective from 1 October. We are all truly delighted for him and would like to thank Urfan for all the hard work he has put in whilst working from home throughout lockdown whilst supporting his young family.
