Clinical Negligence Costs - Practice Update
Introduction
Clinical negligence costs, law and practice remain one of the most rewarding, yet challenging areas of law to work in. The tension between access to justice while remaining profitable is a constant challenge, especially with the looming extension of Fixed Costs in Clinical Negligence cases up to £25,000.
This webinar will focus on the key day-to-day costs and profitability issues faced by clinical negligence practitioners, addressing all the key concerns from a practical viewpoint, including reference to all the relevant rules, practice directions and up-to-date case law on costs and practice. The webinar will also offer useful tips to maximise profitability and cash flow.
Up-to-date cases will be discussed, including Chapman v Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust [2023] regarding Part 36 offers and Churchill v Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council [2023] which will greatly impact parties’ approach to ADR.
This webinar is for all clinical negligence lawyers dealing with claims in the multi-track, plus all the headline subjects around legal costs.
