Course description
The well-used phrase that ‘cash is king’ is never truer in litigation, when often the recovery of costs is generally years after the litigation began and many months after it has been concluded.
This virtual classroom session will examine the circumstances where you may be entitled to seek a payment on account of costs and how to achieve this at the earliest opportunity, especially where you have acted under a Conditional Fee Agreement.
Presented by leading expert Richard Allen, the topics discussed will include the procedure under the CPR and best practice, how much you should be seeking, and how a costs budget affects what you can receive. Evidence, preparing for the hearing, the latest case law, and much more will also be examined.
