They examined that the current approach, which places a heavy emphasis on indemnity costs in such applications, may unintentionally prevent access to justice for plaintiffs and create an imbalance in the legal field.
Through thorough research and compelling case studies, Edward and Arthur have collectively showcased their profound understanding of the law and demonstrated a steadfast commitment to advancing the legal profession. We believe that Edward's guidance and mentorship have nurtured Arthur by allowing him to flourish and contribute meaningfully to this landmark publication in the industry.
