#SerleShare: Guest v Guest [2022] UKSC 387

The correct remedy in a proprietary estoppel claim

In Guest v Guest [2022] UKSC 387 the Supreme Court has addressed the correct remedy for a proprietary estoppel claim: an issue that has vexed property law academics for the last two decades…is it an order making good the defendant’s promise or an order compensating the claimant’s detriment? Or is it something in between?

In this serleshare, Jennifer Meech considers the Supreme Court’s answer to these questions distilling the conclusions of the majority and the minority before identifying the test that is to be applied in future cases.
