Just in time for Spring, LPG are delighted to deliver the latest instalment of #ATEMatters with our take on recent key decisions and judgments from the world of litigation and funding.
We start this month with a look at a Supreme Court decision setting out the legal principles applicable to negligence claims relating to damage to physical property.
If your firm uses Litigation Funding then Topalsson v Rolls Royce is a definite read given the judgment regarding disclosure.
DBAs still remain a bit of a grey area and next up is a decision centred on unenforceability of an agreement due to a breach of the rules.
Finally this edition, we consider whether, if you terminate a CFA and claim damages for breach by the client, you are entitled to bill the client for costs and disbursements incurred?
Please do get in touch if you have any comments regarding #ATEMatters or would like to discuss anything to do with ATE insurance and/or funding.
