It’s common for clients to believe that their opponents are deliberately exaggerating their position. How confident they are of their case. How much their legal fees will be, which they maintain you’ll have to pay “when” they win. How serious they are about issuing proceedings. Etc, etc, etc. Often these allegations turn out to be […]

I’ve long since suspected that I’m being watched. And just because I’m paranoid, doesn’t mean they’re not after me!!! My fears were confirmed to me recently when I had a phone conversation with a colleague about selling an asset through Sotheby’s.  A few hours later, the colleague reported that he was suddenly getting adverts for […]
