Contentious Costs
is a book that no busy practitioner can afford to ignore.

The new Rules and Practice Directions relating to funding arrangements,including conditional fee agreements, are analysed.A wealth of useful advice - ranging from efficient file management to detailed assessment procedure - is provided. Public funding of civil cases under the Access to Justice Act 1999 is throughly addressed; important extracts from the Practice Direction on Costs(revised version) appear; and helpful checklists feature prominently.
