The first in a series of seminars delivered by members of our
solicitor advocacy unit, considering recent developments in the law
relating to credit hire claims in Scotland, and providing further
information about the benefits of using our in house solicitor
advocates.
In light of the Court of Session decision on the issues raised
by credit hire claims, Shaun Clark v City of Edinburgh Council,
we now have the benefit of an outer house authority on
mitigation of loss in such circumstances. The court approved the
long line of English authority on impecuniosity and the requirement
to hire on spot rate, unless the claimant has insufficient funds to
do so.
The seminar will consider the implications of the Clark case and
other recent Sheriff Court cases for defender insurers.
