Fiduciary Duties: Directors and Employees

The law relating to the fiduciary duties owed by directors and employees to companies is complex and involves several overlapping areas of law. It is, however, a relatively commonplace cause of action; individuals in positions of trust within a company are often tempted to abuse their position in order to steal company secrets, set up in competition, and poach staff and customers.

Fiduciary Duties: Directors and Employees draws together, in one volume, the law relating to fiduciary duties and its modern application by the Courts and Tribunals. Whilst the treatment of this subject is intended to be fairly high level, there will also be consideration of the practical application of the law in this area.
