Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main components of litigation costs?
- Solicitor and Barrister fees: Costs for legal representation.
- Court fees: Charges related to the court’s involvement.
- Expert opinion and reports: Fees for third-party expert insights.
- Other disbursements: Costs that cannot include profit for the solicitor or party.
- Judicial Review and Appeals: Costs may increase if appealing decisions.
What is a Part 36 Offer?
A Part 36 Offer is a settlement proposal made during legal proceedings to encourage resolution and protect against further costs. It must include a ‘relevant period’ of at least 21 days for acceptance, affecting the recovery of legal costs.
Will my dispute go to Court?
Most disputes are resolved outside of court using Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods such as negotiation, mediation, adjudication (for construction disputes), or arbitration.
What is litigation funding?
Litigation funding involves a third-party financier covering litigation costs in exchange for a share of the proceeds if the case is successful. This can mitigate financial risks and improve cash flow.
