In the Autumn collection of the Civil Watch series, the focus is on offers to settle claims. George Symes presents a refresher on Part 36 Offers, gives a summary of the recent High Court case of Head v The Culver Heating Co Ltd [2021] EWHC 1235 (QB), and explains how it can affect what would otherwise seem a straightforward Part 36 case. Oliver Newman looks at the operation of without prejudice privilege in prelitigation correspondence.
