Professional Negligence

Members of Chambers are regularly involved in professional negligence cases including claims against accountants, auditors, brokers, surveyors and solicitors.  Our expertise and reputation in the field of insurance and reinsurance means that members of chambers often advise and act in relation to disputes involving insurance intermediaries, underwriters, brokers, Lloyd’s managing agents and members’ agents.  

7KBW has been involved in many of the leading cases in this area of law and is recognised in Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners as a leading set in the field of professional negligence.  Important cases of note have included Henderson v Merrett, Equitable Life v Ernst & Young, MAN v Freightliner, Barings v Coopers & Lybrand and Aneco Reinsurance Underwriting v Johnson & Higgins.  Most recently, members of Chambers have been involved in “Buncefield” Colour Quest Ltd v Total Downstream UK Plc, Dunlop Haywards (DHL) Ltd and Anor v Erinaceous Insurance Services Ltd and Ors, Dunlop Haywards (DHL) Ltd and Anor v Barbon Insurance Group and Ors and Graham Calvert v William Hill Credit Limited.
