The book provides an analytical exposition of the law concerning directors’ liability for the losses sustained by their companies’ creditors when the directors’ companies are in financial distress or become insolvent. It is a detailed one-stop resource for obtaining a good understanding of the law which has developed from legislation and case law. In particular there is a detailed consideration of what needs to be proved what defences there are and what might be the issues of concern for all parties. A doctrinal method is adopted and there is extensive analysis of the relevant legislation and case law. Rather than merely referring to cases to support propositions the discussion considers many of the cases in context and in depth and their relevance to the aim of the book. The book also endeavours to provide views in a practical way on aspects of the law and it identifies problems and how they may be addressed. Of interest to legal practitioners and insolvency practitioners alike in addition the book will be useful to directors government officials and academics. | Company Directors' Liability and Creditor Protection

Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability

Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability

This book examines contractual limitation principles and practice through the use of knock-for-knock indemnity clauses. In using such clauses the parties agree that for certain forms of potential liability – typically property damage personal injury to employees and sometimes other heads of claim such as consequential loss – any loss arising will be absorbed by the party who suffers it: you look after your losses I’ll look after mine. It is an apparently simple pragmatic and neat solution to the question of who bears liability: a risk allocation model so straightforward that it was described by one experienced English judge Honorable Mr. Justice Morison as crude. A specialist contributor team of international experts examine the origin application and effect of these clauses in important jurisdictions their impact in different industries such as oil & gas shipping construction and insurance through the lenses of both economic and legal analyses. The book is of use for lawyers economists and businesspeople who draft negotiates or manage contracts in all industries where liability is dealt with in this way. It is also of interest to students academics and policy makers. | Knock-for-Knock Indemnities and the Law Contractual Limitation and Delictual Liability

Merkin and Flannery on the Arbitration Act 1996

It is an updated section-by-section commentary on the Arbitration Act 1996 split into a separate set of notes for each section and subdivided into the relevant issues within that section. It contains elements of international comparative law citing authorities from many other common law and civil law jurisdictions. Beyond the development of law since the last edition this sixth edition contains new practical features to aid the reader. Each section now has a new contents table with each separate topic set out clearly and in a logical order which acts as reminder for the reader. Further each separate topic now has a specific individual reference and the topics are grouped in a more systematic and logical way within each section to improve readability. The book is primarily aimed at practitioners of arbitration both in the UK and abroad including solicitors barristers arbitrators and judges who are involved in the practice of arbitration (whether domestic or international).

Erratum: The authors regret that the new version of the LCIA Rules will not now be published (or be applicable) until early 2020 due to unexpected circumstances. It is understood that those Articles referred to in the text as the 2019 Rules will remain unchanged albeit that the Rules when in force should be and will be cited as the 2020 LCIA Rules. The authors accept responsibility for and apologise for this error. | Merkin and Flannery on the Arbitration Act 1996
