While Class Law has been basking in the glory of representing Equitable Life and Independent Insurance creditors in the fight for right, it seems some of its less well-known campaigns have stumbled.
Class Law was defending Equity & Provident last week against the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry.
The DTI wanted to wind up the company, which sold motor warranties online, on the grounds that its warranties were misleading (it said it would consider claims without obligation to pay them out), and that it would not co-operate with the DTI investigation.
The company admitted that its correspondence with the DTI was misleading and that it should have put up correct terms and conditions on its website earlier.
The court found that the conduct of those controlling the company was "devious and dishonest" and said it was appropriate to wind the company up.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
