Excellent news on the discount rate, today being set at -0.25%. Well done to the Government for not bowing to pressure from the powerful insurance lobby. Pleased to see severely injured claimants considered before insurers profits.

Great meeting today with many industry stakeholders, putting our members views forward. It’s also testament to how MASS is valued and respected by the MOJ that we’re asked to contribute. It’s so important to be involved at this critical time.

Kerry Underwood says ‘informed consent’ to a 100% consent fee from your client saves the day in Herbert v HH

[Kerry Underwood @kerry_underwood]

Court of Appeal holds that 100% success fee lawful PROVIDED solicitor can show informed consent, and thus upholds first instance decision and High Court decision. No problem if you see your client and explain - Herbert v HH law.
