EL success fee agreement welcomed

The agreement on EL success fees has been largely welcomed. Alistair Kinley of the Association of British Insurers said: “The CJC Costs Mediation has once again helped all sides make huge progress forward from the dark days of the so-called ‘costs war’. The latest agreement on success fees levels in employers’ liability accident claims is yet further evidence of confidence in this process and of its importance in resolving costs issues.
