520 _aDiscusses the case "Munkenbeck and Marshall v Kensington Hotel" which centred around the use of the term 'architect'. Following the dismissal of Munkenbeck and Marshall from a conversion project, Kensington had refused to pay outstanding fees because Munkenbeck had been in breach of an agreement to use only registered architects on the project. The judge determined that Munkenbeck had properly described its staff as qualified personnel and were entitled to fees, however professional firms do need to be careful to accurately represent qualifications or experience so as not to give clients a pretext to withhold or reduce fee payments.
