Sebry v Companies House [2015] EWHC 115 (QB)
Clive successfully represented the Claimant in the much publicised High Court case brought against Companies House. Concerned the mistaken entry by Companies House on their register stating that a long established company was in liquidation. Claim for £8.8 million is said to be the first of its kind. Issues arose as to the scope of any duty of care and/or statutory duty of the Registrar owed to the companies listed on its register. The Judge held that the obvious foreseeability of serious harm resulting from an incorrect listing, as well as the proximity owed to a single identifiable company, gave rise to a special relationship justifying such a duty.

Ritz Hotel Casino Ltd v Safa Abdulla Al Geabury [2015] EWHC 2294 (QB)
Successfully represented the Ritz Casino and obtained judgment for £2,000,000 plus interest and indemnity costs against Mr Al Geabury on a gambling debt. Mr Al Geabury, who lost that money in less than two hours, said that the Ritz abused his gambling addiction, and he counterclaimed many millions of pounds. The evidence of independent psychiatrists on both sides supported the existence of an addiction. Two days of meticulous cross-examination demonstrated to the satisfaction of the court that Mr Al Geabury had no addiction and that his case was entirely false. Click here for more.
