In an action for professional liability, the question arises as to the level of knowledge, skill and technique normally required for such professionals and what is the duty of care and/or accountability owed to the client. Such issues are determined by taking into account the social function of the relevant profession, the nature of the work and the relevant contractual provisions with the client. AMT has handled disputes relating to professional liability, including breaches of auditors’ (accounting auditors) duties under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and the Companies Act, breaches of audit firms’ duties in support of IPOs, and breaches of architects’ duties in the design of large-scale facilities. In addition to this proven track record and experience, AMT has also developed close relationships with professionals in a wide range of fields, such as doctors and architects through its cases. Based on such interactions, AMT has a deep understanding of various professions which enables us to handle a wide range of professional liability disputes.
