A FIRM of solicitors is “fully resisting” a claim against it for up to €47m in damages over alleged negligence in advice it gave about a hotel development site.
Thomas Hayden and his sons Wayne and Paul claim they have been humiliated by the faith they placed in their solicitors, Eversheds, O’Donnell Sweeney, Earlsfort Centre, Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin, over the proposed development of the La Touche Hotel site in Greystones, Co Wicklow.
AIB appointed a receiver over the hotel in May 2008.
They claim no development works ever commenced at the site and, as a result, they lost their expected share of €17.6m profits and the opportunity to sell the premises for between €22m and €30m.
