Costs & Funding following the Civil Justice Reforms: Questions & Answers

Costs & Funding following the Civil Justice Reforms: Questions & Answers is a unique book. Produced in conjunction with Practical Law, this short and practical title tackles common practitioner questions on the effects of the 2013 Jackson reforms on costs and funding.

It sets out to answer questions posed on topics ranging from funding of litigation, case and costs management and proportionality to settlement offers, QOCS and summary assessment.
