About
Celebrating 20 years of going above and beyond.
Ormistons was established in 2003 by Trevor Ormiston as a specialist Mental Health legal practice. Since that time, we have established a vast client base across the length and breadth of Scotland due to our client-focused, personalised service representing and assisting those subject to the Mental Health (Care and Treatment) Scotland Act 2003.
On a daily basis, we work with clients subject to detentions under the Mental Health Act both in hospital and the community. We also represent named persons and family members in relation to their legal rights when a person is detained. In 2022 we conducted over 1250 mental health tribunals and are proud to say that we are recognised as one of the leading firms in our field of law.
In Ormistons, we recognise the need for a specialist mental health legal service across the length and breadth of the Scottish mainland and Isles. For that reason, the same level of service is provided regardless of geographical location.
