Alfred McAlpine Construction Ltd v Forum Architects
Citation: EWHC 1152 (TCC); [2002] All E.R. (D) 32 (Jun)
Nature of case:
McAlpine’s claim for a remedy against their architects (as part of the Panatown saga) failed because their contract was with the limited company set up by the partnership, not with the partners themselves, who owed no duty of care. There was no principal/agent relationship.
