Costs & Litigation Funding

Examining the fast changing costs and litigation funding landscape to thrive in the post-Jackson era

Introduction

With the Government recently unveiling the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill, costs and litigation funding is in a state of flux. At this critical junction, it is imperative that you are completely up-to-date with all the latest and proposed changes.  Chaired once again by Michael Cook, our expert speaker panel, including Master Peter Haworth of the Senior Courts Costs Office and Nicholas Bacon QC of 4 New Square, will guide you through the recent case law, procedural and proposed legislative changes.

We are particularly delighted to welcome Jonathan Djanogly MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Justice as our keynote speaker to discuss the potential reform of civil litigation costs and funding.
