LISTEN: Alison Hardy, partner at Ashurst, tackles one of the biggest property cases set to be heard in 2019 – the dispute over whether the European Medicines Agency’s £13m-a-year lease of premises at Canary Wharf is “frustrated” by Brexit.
Ahead of the trial scheduled for early next year, Hardy explains how frustration works, outlines the arguments being advanced by landlord and tenant, and offers her views on the likely outcome.
In addition, she considers other ways in which Brexit may loom large in property litigation during the coming year.
