Legal 500 2017

We understand that the costs of litigation may be significant and that funding those costs can be a challenge for our clients. There are a variety of alternative funding arrangements which may assist you in reducing the costs of litigation or sharing the risk of those costs with another party such as a specialist insurer. This summary provides an outline of the various funding arrangements that are available. We would be very happy to discuss these options with you in more detail.

 

Conditional Fee Agreement

Another way in which we can share the risk with you, a so-called ‘CFA’ is an agreement between you and us where you agree to pay our fees at reduced rates (for example 80% of our standard rates) if the case is not successful, and at our standard rates plus a ‘success fee’ if the case is successful. As a result of recent changes in the law, please note that the ‘success fee’ can no longer be recovered from the other side as part of your costs.
