One bottle. One snail. One case that changed negligence law.

Donoghue v Stevenson [1932] is a key SQE1 case for understanding duty of care and the neighbour principle.

Remember: Bottle. Snail. No direct contract. Duty of care.

Stop reading SQE1 questions like a story.

A long SBAQ can contain plenty of information, but not every detail carries the same legal weight.

Instead of trying to remember everything, ask:

“Which fact changes the legal outcome?”

Identify the issue. Find the decisive fact. Apply the rule.

That's how you start turning legal knowledge into exam application.

You can know the law and still get an SQE1 question wrong.

Why?

Because knowing the rule is only the first step. The real challenge is applying it to the specific facts.

Next time you face a long SBAQ, ask:

What fact is legally decisive?

Don't give every sentence equal weight.

Can a company automatically take over a contract signed before it existed?

Not under the general rule in section 51 of the Companies Act 2006. The person who purported to act for the unformed company is generally personally liable, unless the parties agreed otherwise.

Try the question, then check the explanation.

A trustee makes a profit through their role. Are they automatically entitled to keep it?

The no-profit rule means an unauthorised profit made through a fiduciary position may need to be accounted for. The trust does not always have to prove a loss.
