Luke & Another v Wansbroughs (a firm) & Another

Comment

Malicious Falsehood claims are pretty rare. A negligence action based on the loss of a malicious falsehood claim is even rarer. The robust advice on the prospects of strike out given by a specialist barrister was held to be not negligent. This was not surprising. Prior to the Woolf reforms, a Defendant facing a 5-year-old stale claim would have had little problem in having it struck out. How things have changed!
