On Friday George was contacted by one of the main investors in Choice, Caroline, seeking his professional opinion regarding a new financial investment in a Digital Company, which she was considering.Caroline agreed to pay him for his professional advice. As George was very busy dealing with the online website, he phoned an accountant colleague, who advised him that as far as he knew the Digital Company was sound.He passed this information on to Caroline who proceeded to invest in the company.Three weeks later, the Digital Company collapsed.Caroline has informed George that she intends to sue him.George does not believe that she has any grounds on which to sue him as he gave her his honest opinion.

This is the case we need to identify the law, explain it and apply it to the problem.

I know that it is misrepresentation but I am unsure how to answer this question.
