legalchap: July 2015
http://legalchap.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 1 July 2015. It was surprising and disappointing to read yesterday the report in the Law Society Gazette under the headline “Will Aid apologises to solicitors for Co-op offer”. The apology follows a mass mailing campaign to thousands of members of the public promoting the provision of wills in collaboration with Co-operative Legal Services, amongst others, and containing the phrase “you don’t have to see a solicitor”. Of a “blatant disregard for everything we’ve done”. For those who aren’...

legalchap: How it works - car insurance
http://legalchap.blogspot.com/2013/01/how-it-works-car-insurance.html
Sunday, 27 January 2013. How it works - car insurance. Well, hopefully you are in the majority who buy insurance. Each year it costs you more than it did last year, despite the fact that you have had no claims, no speeding tickets and your “no claims discount” has risen. The only way to cut the cost is to change insurer. Bad luck – you have an accident. Your car is damaged, somebody else’s car is damaged and it is the other guy’s fault. They will be cheaper than your preferred garage, first, because the ...

Guideline hourly rates: help or hindrance? | Costsblog
https://costsblog.wordpress.com/2013/10/14/guideline-hourly-rates-help-or-hindrance
Legal costs – a view from the inside. Guideline hourly rates: help or hindrance? Which provide litigants and judges alike with a starting point and, hopefully, a route to an end point. Further information as to the derivation of the (2009) GHR may be found here. The most common (and annoying) argument I receive from receiving parties is that the GHR are simply and completely irrelevant to the detailed / provisional assessment of their costs. Really? No, of course that cannot be right; it is absurd. It is...

legalchap: The bottom line
http://legalchap.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-bottom-line.html
Monday, 25 May 2015. Today I’m inspired by a sunny bank holiday morning in Somerset and a typically heart-warming post by my friend Steve Cornforth, senior partner of EAD Solicitors in Liverpool, at the end of last week. A Win for Justice. Reports the settlement of a claim at a value which was twenty times that of the defendants’ original offer. Involved an offer-award ratio of similar proportions. There are many others where the gap is not so alarming, but still remarkable. So they try to minimise outla...
