Publisher's Synopsis
All professional advisors need to be aware of the range of liabilities that they face and to foresee potential dangers. Complaints to the Serious Fraud Office are increasing: one quarter of all complaints are against solicitors. Other professional advisors are similarly exposed. The risks now include liabilities to third parties if a client intends a breach of fiduciary duty.;This book shows how to reduce these risks by analysing the bases of these liabilities. Simon Baughen examines both common law and equitable liabilities and eases the task of reducing the risk.
