against its former solicitors, TTC, as time-barred under the Limitation Ordinance.

judgment_summary: >-
|
|
Kensland Realty Limited sued its former solicitors, TTC, for negligence in advising it regarding a property
|
|
transaction. The Court found Kensland's action time-barred under the Limitation Ordinance as the cause
|
|
of action accrued more than six years ago. Key legal analysis focused on whether Kensland had 'knowledge
|
|
required for bringing an action' within that period, which was deemed not to be the case.
