Fixed Recoverable Costs

Fixed costs apply in most low value personal injury claims and the rules regarding fixed costs are set out in Section 45 of the CPR. Disputes regarding fixed costs are becoming more and more common, particularly in matters relating to section IIIA of CPR 45. The Legal Practice Support team have vast experience in dealing with the following issues:

• Consequences of late acceptance of a Part 36 Offer.
• Non-fixed disbursement disputes.
• Justification for removal of a matter from the Portal.
• Pre action protocol and Section III CPR 45 disputes.
