Licensing

WJM has been active in the field of Licensing for many years, both before and after the passage of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005.

We act for existing licensees, prospective licensees, and objectors.  We have represented clients at Licensing Board and Committee meetings, as well as in court when needed to appeal decisions.

Our expertise is not limited to liquor licensing, as we are also able to advise on matters arising from the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982, such as in relation to taxi and booking office licensing and public entertainment licensing.
