Your question has nothing to do with Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility. That topic is for questions related to the legal profession and the rules and laws governing the ethical and client relationship responsibilities of lawyers. It is unclear from your question whether you are an employee or a contractor to the prime. If an employee, you have an Employment Law issue. If a subcontractor, you have a Construction Law problem. LawGuru routes questions to lawyers with expertise in specific areas. You need to post your question in the correct topic to get an answer.Read more

About this Event
Should the courts review directors’ business judgment? This question has been canvassed extensively in academic literature. Arguments against such review include the dangers of judging directors’ decisions with the benefit of hindsight; the fact that judges lack business expertise and should not, therefore, second guess business decisions; that review of business judgment with liability would deter individuals from becoming directors; or that it would lead to more risk adverse decisions. Arguments for review include improving standards; deterring unfit directors; and, significantly, accountability of directors for harms they have caused through careless decisions.
This paper reassesses the debate, drawing on the findings of a two year Arts and Humanities Research Council funded study Business Judgment and the Courts. This project examined what was meant by business judgment; identified how the courts apply this concept; and assessed to what extent d

I have been thinking (I know, assuming facts not in evidence) about Occam’s Razor, the principle that says, essentially, that the simplest answer is usually the right one. Who was Occam and why we should care? William of Ockham was a late Middle Ages (late 13th to mid-14th century) philosopher and theologian.
We lawyers tend to perseverate, to twist ourselves into knots trying to explain sophisticated legal concepts to clients, often needlessly complicating things. We are not pretzels, and so we shouldn’t tie ourselves up like them.
Unless those clients are also lawyers, the clients’ eyes will glaze over in a futile attempt to understand what we are trying to say. The principle of Occam’s Razor is, I think, a predecessor to the KISS concept (and I don’t mean Gene Simmons or Paul Stanley.) KISS means “keep it simple, stupid.” That applies to just about everyone in every field, but I think it holds a special place i
