Recovery of unpaid professional fees — Any claim in contract (whether express or implied) statute barred — Admitted that any claim formerly in quasi-contract (quantum meruit) was statute barred — Claims barred at the latest on 15 July 1998 — Proceedings commenced 27 September 2005, over 7 years later — Claim barred on restitution for unjust enrichment — Held: (a) restitution for unjust enrichment is not a new right of action. (b) restitution for unjust enrichment is the new legal reasoning governing the set of remedies previously rationalised as quasi-contract. (c) the plainitff's right of action was still quantum meruit and was statute barred. (d) a change of judicial reasoning in that area of law formerly known as quasi-contract does not defeat the parliamentary intention behind Limitation Act 1969 section 14(1)(a)
