Warranty Claims

Our team of forensic accountants are often instructed to assist in warranty claims whereby a warranty may be provided for the performance of goods or services.

Warranty Disputes

Warranty claims also arise when the buyer of a company is given a warranty as to the true position of the business, these form part of a sales contract and one of their main purposes is to limit risk and liability between the two parties.

Warranties could provide assurances of:
  • Shareholder valuations;
  • Employee issues;
  • Intellectual property rights;
  • Quality and performance of products.

Business Warranty

Our team of forensic accountants is able to assist in warranty claims both on behalf of claimants and Defendants in order to establish an accurate quantification of loss as a result of a breach of a warranty. We are regularly instructed by solicitors, insurance companies and corporate organisations.

Recent tax changes announced by Chancellor Jeremy Hunt may mean that any future loss calculations may require review. If you have an ongoing case that we have assisted with, we would be happy to discuss this with you. Likewise, for any potential new instructions we are always happy to have an initial chat. National Insurance Cuts On 6th January 2024 cuts to National Insurance rates will come into effect for employed Claimants: The main NI rate is being cut from 12% to 10%. From April 2024 for self employed Claimants: Class 4 NI rate will reduce from 9% to 8%, and; Class 2 NI contributions will be scrapped. The changes will affect future Loss of Earnings calculations. State Pension Changes There will also be a rise in State Pension of 8.5% from April 2024. Losses to State Pension are considered on a case by case basis.

In the 2023 budget, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced fundamental changes to the Annual Allowance and Life Time Allowance charges for pensions savers. What are The Allowances? The Annual Allowance is the amount that an individual can pay into their pension scheme (both their own and their employer contributions) each year before paying Tax on the contributions made. The Life Time Allowance is the total amount an individual’s pension fund can be before they pay additional Taxes on their pension benefits. What Has Changed? The Annual Allowance has increased from £40,000 per annum to £60,000 per annum. The Lifetime Allowance, which was £1,073,100, has been abolished. What Does This Mean for Your Client? If you have a high earning client (often in the public sector where employer contributions are more generous), then your current calculation of lost pension benefits may include deductions for tax under both the Annual and Lifetime Allowance schemes and so may now be materially understated. How Can We Help? Our team have vast experience in assessing pension loss claims for all types of occupations and are fully au fait with the changes to the Tax rules from April. We would be happy to carry out a review of your pension loss calculations either on a stand alone basis or in conjunction with other relevant heads of claim.
