The Law of Solicitors' Liabilities
, previously known as
Solicitors' Negligence and Liability,
provides a comprehensive guide to all aspects of solicitors' negligence, liability in equity and wasted costs. Written by leading practitioners in the field, it deals with a variety of topics, from general principles to specific situations, providing practical guidance to the procedural aspects of bringing and defending a claim for solicitors' negligence.
The new fourth edition includes:
- A new chapter on insurance law focusing on a number of key topics which arise, particularly in relation to solicitors' insurance: aggregation; condonation; definition of private legal practice; notification; possibly successor practice rules.
- Updated case law to cover all recent Supreme Court and Court of Appeal decisions, eg
Hughes-Holland v BPE
(Supreme Court) scope of duty and extent of damages;
Redler v AIB
(Supreme Court): breach of trust;
Lowick Rose v Swynson
(Supreme Court): lifting the corporate veil in claims against professionals;
Tiuta International v de Villiers
(Court of Appeal): lenders' claims, impact of a remortgage on damages;
Wellesley v Withers
(Court of Appeal): test for remoteness of damage; and
E Surv v Goldsmith Williams
(Court of Appeal): implied duty on solicitors in lenders' claims.
- Regulatory/disciplinary developments, eg revised SRA Code of Conduct.
