An examination of the rules, statutes and regulations governing costs, with examples of their implementation and consequences. The 2000 edition covers the changes to contentious costs, conditional fee agreements and civil legal aid agreements as enacted by the Civil Procedure Rules.
This annual publication examines all rules, statutes and regulations governing costs, together with examples of their implementation and consequences. The 2000 edition has been rewritten to cover the changes to contentious costs, conditional fee agreements and civil legal aid agreements as enacted by the Civil Procedure Rules and now takes account of the Access to Justice Act 1999 and a large number of new cases in areas from charging rates for time wasted to wasted costs orders. The charging of clients is an intricate and technical question fraught with difficulties, but this work seeks both to inform those who know little about costs and to broaden the knowledge of those who have previous experience within the field. Over 300 illustrative examples, many of them new to this edition, are provided to help the practitioner understand the relevant issues and commentary.

Part 1 Introduction: the approach. Part 2 The quantification of contentious and non-contentious costs: is there any difference?; time; the other factors; value; judgement. Part 3 Solicitor and client: the retainer; agreements with clients; form and content of a Bill; solicitor and client VAT; recovery of costs; the client's rights; the solicitor and third parties. Part 4 Party and party: High Court 1 - RSC Order 62; High Court 2 - making the most of Appendix 2; High Court 3 - fixed costs; interest on costs; county court; matrimonial; the indemnity principle; security for costs; "without prejudice save as to costs"; payment into court; getting the right order - and the order right; VAT inter parties; sanctions and penalties; taxations, objections and review; litigants in person. Part 5 Legal aid: solicitor and client; costs of successful unassisted parties; fixed fees and prescribed hourly rates; franchises. Part 6 Conditional and contingent fees: contingency agreements; champerty and maintenance; no win - no fee; assessing the risk; after-the-event insurance; who pays?; the role of the court.
