1. This was the trial of an action by Susan Field ("Ms Field") against Barber Asia Limited ("Barber Asia") in which Ms Field claims damages in respect of financial advice given to her by Barber Asia. Ms Field alleges that the advice that she was given was negligent, and that losses which she suffered as a result of relying on such advice are recoverable either on the basis of a breach of contract by Barber Asia or because Barber Asia owed her a duty of care in tort in relation to such advice.
