This webinar looks at what to do when things go wrong in civil litigation.   There is a continual flow of reports that deal with errors made in relation to limitation, service or someone falling foul of the rules or court orders.   It is often the case that  if prompt and careful steps has been taken many of the matters could have been put right.  Of more concern are those cases where lawyers run into professional and ethical problems because they have concealed a mistake or not dealt with it properly. It is often delay, and taking the “wrong” decision that leads to matters getting worse.  Knowing what to do will (i) help you not to make these mistakes; (ii) help enormously when you are faced with the task of putting mistakes right.  Booking details are available here.

(Sometimes, when you’re in a hole you need to stop digging…)
