Description

Conflicts of Interest is an essential work that provides a comprehensive examination of the law relating to conflicts of interest. This authoritative resource offers guidance on the core principles of conflict law, its obligations and duties, offering practitioners and researchers a thorough understanding of this crucial area. It helps the user avoid potential conflicts of interest and provides practical advice and remedies for those that arise. The work covers:

  • the law relating to conflicts of interest in all its dimensions, from client conflict and personal conflict to commercial and judicial conflict
  • the double employment rule
  • managing conflicts by contract
  • perception of impropriety as a test for conflicts
  • obligations to disclose and information barriers
  • the practicalities of litigating conflicts
  • the duty to the other side
  • obligation to blow the whistle on a client
  • judicial conflicts, including bias and apparent bias
  • the current legal position in various professional sectors: lawyers, accountants, the City, directors, estate agents and insurance brokers.

 

The seventh edition has been fully updated, including a wholesale revision of the Arbitration chapter to reflect the decisions in Aiteo and in Halliburton v Chubb. It also covers a number of key recent cases, including:

  • The recent Supreme Court decision on motor finance, Hopcraft v Close Brothers, which clarifies when fiduciary obligations arise, particularly significant for brokers and intermediaries dealing with "secret" commissions and conflicts of interest
  • Recovery Partners v Rukhadze, an important authority on equitable remedies in conflict situations
  • The Court of Appeal decision in A firm v Secretariat, which appears to extend conflict of interest rules beyond individual companies to other group companies within corporate groups
  • Ashraf v Lester Dominic Solicitors, which re-evaluates principles regarding professional duties to the other side
  • UK Trucks Claim Ltd v Stellantis, which addresses conflicts between class members in group litigation
  • Staechelin v ACLBDD Holdings Ltd, which discusses the question of whether conflicted professionals can be deprived of their fees
