Coventry has a substantial professional services sector serving the city's diverse economy. The city's large property market, automotive sector, and two major universities generate regular conveyancing, surveying, and professional advice negligence claims.
Coventry's property market — spanning post-war housing, Victorian terraces, and new city centre developments — creates a steady volume of surveyor and conveyancer negligence claims. The city's automotive and manufacturing sector generates accountancy and business advice claims. The two universities create education-related professional negligence claims.
A surveyor undertaking a building survey on a Coventry post-war property failed to identify significant concrete carbonation and structural defects. The buyer faced substantial unexpected repair costs.
An accountant advising a Coventry automotive supplier incorrectly advised that certain development costs qualified for R&D tax relief. HMRC subsequently denied the relief and imposed penalties.
Coventry's key industries include automotive (Jaguar Land Rover and suppliers), manufacturing, digital and creative, property and construction, and education (the two universities).
Yes. Post-war system-built properties have specific structural risks that a competent surveyor should be aware of and report on. If the surveyor failed to identify significant defects, they may be negligent. The claim would be for the cost of unexpected repairs.
Yes, if the advice was negligent. Accountants giving R&D tax advice must ensure the costs genuinely qualify under the relevant legislation. If the accountant failed to properly assess whether the work met the statutory definition of R&D, and you incurred HMRC penalties as a result, you can claim for the disallowed relief, the penalties, and interest.
