News and Insights

The Court of Appeal’s decision in Mazur has confirmed a long‑standing and well‑understood model of delegation under supervision in litigation, reassuring much of the profession that established practices remain lawful. At the same time, it highlights real risk where appropriate supervision and delegation arrangements are absent or inadequately evidenced, leaving open the possibility that an unauthorised person is in fact conducting litigation. A clearer, fact‑specific approach to supervision, delegation, and retained responsibility can help firms maintain established working practices while reducing regulatory and procedural exposure.Mazur ruling overturned: why it’s not quite business as usual

Why executive security should be top-of-mind for digital asset companies

On 6 November 2024, kidnappers in Toronto forced Dean Skurka into a vehicle during rush hour at a downtown intersection near the National Ballet of Canada. Kidnappers later released Skurka, the CEO of cryptocurrency firm WonderFi, after receiving a ransom of $720,660. Skurka emerged from the ordeal uninjured, but his plight illustrates the growing risk of harassment, extortion, and kidnapping that executives face, particularly for those who work in the digital asset sector.

Safety threats are not limited to executives in just one or a few industries. However, as digital assets have gained visibility in recent years, criminals increasingly view the sector as a ripe opportunity for ill-gotten financial gain. That means digital asset companies must reassess several protocols, ranging from their physical and digital security measures to when and how often executives surface in public settings, and even how often they use social media.On 6 November 2024, kidnappers in Toronto forced Dean Skurka into a vehicle during rush hour at a downtown intersection near the National Ballet of Canada.
