In a decision from March just published, Costs Judge Leonard ruled that the defendant in this case had “every right” to terminate its retainer with a clinical negligence client when presented with evidence that she had lied about the severity of her symptoms. The allegations of dishonesty made by the defendant against her were “substantive enough” to terminate the retainer.
Gurion Taussig represented Handley Law in this case.
