Napier and another v Pressdram Ltd [2008] EWCA Civ 443; [2009] WLR (D) 172
“Where a complainant made a complaint against his solicitor to the Law Society the complainant owed no duty of confidentiality to the solicitor or his firm not to reveal to others the result of the adjudication where the subject matter underlying the adjudication contained no private information concerning the solicitor. The procedural nature of the investigation itself did not give rise to a duty of confidentiality.”
