Insolvency practitioner ordered to pay two thirds of his fee in costs after giving misleading information about client's income

A personal insolvency practitioner who provided misleading information about the income of a man he was representing will have to pay €6,000 in legal costs, the High Court ruled.

The conduct of practitioner Daniel Rule, of McCambridge Duffy, "well justified" an order for full costs being made against him, Mr Justice Denis McDonald said.
