Fixed recoverable costs & the Intermediate Track – the latest changes

The regime for fixed recoverable costs for cases worth up to £100,000, which introduced the Intermediate Track, only came into force last October but a series of amendments have already been made to it following a Ministry of Justice consultation. In this webinar, Professor Dominic Regan will recap the key aspects of the system and outline the adjustments that came into force in April:

• A subtle but important tweak to Stage 2 of Table 14 which dictates the costs recoverable in the Intermediate Track
• The new Stage 16
• Contracting out – still a mess
• How to best run cases in the Intermediate Track
• When fixed costs aren’t fixed
• Clarification of the clinical negligence exception
• The limit on expert reports clarified.
