STATEMENTS OF CASE, DRAFTING, DANGERS AND PITFALLS 2022: FORTHCOMING WEBINAR
Recently we have looked at several cases where the importance of proper pleading was emphasises. For instance in Charles Russell Speechlys LLP v Beneficial House (Birmingham) Regeneration LLP [2021] EWHC 3458 (QB) the appeal was allowed, and the matter remitted back for a second trial, because the claimant had not properly pleaded the case it succeeded on at trial. On the 18th February 2022 I am presenting a webinar on statements of case, booking details are available here.
