Limitation of Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance

Limitation of liability

We only advise on matters within the scope of our instructions for the matter in which we are dealing with for you. Unless it has been expressly agreed otherwise, we do not advise on the financial or tax aspects of a matter, on your wider tax or financial interests, on the law of jurisdictions outside of England and Wales, or on accounts or commercial advice (including the viability and prudence of the matter), even if a relevant issue arises during the course of our work together. You must seek separate specialist advice on these matters.

Our advice is intended solely for your use. We do not accept or assume responsibility other than to you, our client. Unless we agree otherwise in writing, you must not share our advice with anyone else.

No member or employee of our firm will be liable to you for breach of contract or negligence in their personal capacity.

Other than in respect of liability arising from fraud, personal injury, or death, we do not accept liability for claims received more than 12 months from the conclusion of our work or, if not apparent within that time, more than six months after it becomes apparent.

We do not accept liability for any loss or damage caused by negligence, non-performance, or breach of duty to a value above the amount mentioned in the client care information document, unless we have made a special arrangement with you at the outset of your matter.

Your statutory rights remain unaffected.

Professional indemnity insurance

We have professional indemnity insurance in accordance with statutory requirements. Our professional indemnity insurance cover does not extend to damages or other monetary awards, judgments or negotiated settlements, claims made, or suits brought before an arbitrator, tribunal, or court in any country other than England or Wales.

If you should require a copy of our professional indemnity insurance policy schedule, this is available upon request. The details of our insurer are Lloyd’s Syndicate AXS 1686.

We do not accept liability for any loss or damage caused by negligence, non-performance or breach of duty to a value over £3 million, unless we for any one claim made a special arrangement with you at the outset of your matter.
