COUNTESS SPENCER ABLE TO SUE SOLICITORS
The High Court has cleared the way for
Countess Spencer to sue her former
solicitors for £1.6m.
Mr Justice Douglas Brown refused an
application by the Family Law
Consortium to abandon a damages claim
against them for alleged negligence.
The Consortium handled the Countess's
affairs before her bitter divorce from
Earl Spencer.
The Countess smiled as the decision was
passed by the court in London.
