Undue Influence

When you are pressured into entering into a bargain you may want to know if you can rescind the contract. This is particularly relevant in the context of certain relationships, such as parent and child, where a presumption of undue influence can exist. 

Alternatively, in other contexts there can be actual undue influence given the trust and confidence placed in another person so that the transaction is liable to be set aside. 

If you need to seek rescission due to undue influence or have to oppose it then contact us to discuss the facts of your case and how the law might apply to it.
