The law governing the time limit and the limitation period for a review of lawyer’s accounts is complex and cannot be fully understood by reading rule 10.10(2) and section 2 of the Limitations Act. Much of it is derived from judicial decisions. This paper provides a brief overview of the law and examines the time limits and limitation periods for reviews of lawyers’ statements of account.
