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.
This webinar will cover:
- The most common kinds of mistake in personal injury litigation.
- Limitation
- Breach of court orders
- Problematic witnesses and clients
- What not to do – do not dig deeper holes.
- The practical steps you can take to put matters right
- What do you do if the problem can’t be rectified
- Learning from your mistakes
- SRA Guidance
