Background
The collapse of Carillion in 2018 was arguably the UK's largest corporate insolvency in years, creating a lasting impact through job losses and the derailment of hundreds of public sector projects.
On 20 May 2022 Mr Justice Adam Johnson handed down his judgment in the matter of Swiss Cottage Properties Limited (in liquidation) [2022] EWHC 1495 (Ch). Deloitte, represented by Derrick Dale QC and Ben Griffiths as instructed by DAC Beachcroft LLP, successfully defended a claim for negligence. A copy of the judgment is available here.
Businesses are currently facing unprecedented challenges. DAC Beachcroft is advising the NHS on covid-19 issues, as well as many corporate clients on the business issues arising out of the pandemic, particularly in relation to employees, insurance, continuity and cyber security.
