Professional Liability
As a pupil, Liana received instructions to assist with amending a defence on behalf of the insurers of chartered tax advisors in a multi-million pound claim concerning a claimant who had entered into numerous tax mitigation schemes and she was later instructed to assist with disclosure in advance of the mediation (led by Caroline McColgan).
Liana benefitted from the supervision of leading barristers in this area during pupillage. Examples of her work as a pupil include:
- Advising a firm of solicitors alleged to have misused client money during a property conveyance.
- Advising a firm of solicitors who had provided the claimant with independent legal advice in relation to a transaction in which the claimant secured a loan for the benefit of her son against two properties.
- Drafting a skeleton argument for an application for summary judgement on behalf of a firm of conveyancing solicitors in relation to a claimant who alleged that the sale of her property was an unconscionable bargain and procured by undue influence.
