Alpha Corp recently suffered two losses. First, as a result of the carelessness of its financial adviser, Jewel, it lost $$100000$ when it invested in worthless shares. Second, in a separate incident, it lost $$50000$ when its lawyer, Maia, failed to file a certain document at the land registry office on time. Both Jewel and Maia are liable to Alpha for the tort of negligence. The doctrine of joint and several liability always applies if two or more tortfeasors are liable to the plaintiff. Alpha is entitled to claim $$150000$ from Jewel, and Jewel would then be entitled to claim $$50000$ in contribution from Maia.
