520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Considers the case of "Merrett v Babb" in which the issue raised question whether a professional employee was liable to be sued directly for advice given on behalf of the employer. The original case established that the defendant (B), the surveyor, did hold a duty of care to the plaintiff (M). B's appeal was also dismissed, leaving the implication that professional employees may be open to claims for negligent advice in situations where their firm has become insolvent or is otherwise underinsured. They may need to take steps to obtain personal insurance after their employment as ended.
