Watkins & Anor v Jones Maidment Wilson (A Firm) [2008] EWCA Civ 134 (04 March 2008)

Description

In a claim for wrongful advice in respect of a building agreement, the claimants would if properly advised have had the chance to negotiate a better agreement. That chance was an immediate loss once the agreement was entered in to leading to a completed cause of action against the solicitors. There was no separate cause of action for a residual claim for loss of a chance of renegotiation. The claim was therefore statue barred.
