Solicitors on record owe a paramount and independent duty to assist the Court which overrides client instructions; accordingly the defendant’s solicitors were not entitled to refuse to prepare and lodge PTR/Trial bundles on the basis of their client’s instructions and the Court directed the defendant to prepare and lodge specified pre‑trial materials and complied with procedural requirements; the Joint Assessment Report accepted as expert evidence without calling the experts.
