註釋
Since conditional fees replaced legal aid as the main form of funding for personal injury cases in 2000, PI lawyers have been grappling with the complexities and the economic uncertainties of operating on a "no win, no fee" basis. The recent high profile Court of Appeal decisions in Callery v. Gray and Sarwar v. Alam offer the first judicial guidance on the thorny issue of Conditional Fee Agreements (CFAs). However, there remain many questions in relation to the proper and profitable use of CFAs. This book is one of the first available guides to provide an up-to-date and practical account of all aspects of CFAs following the important Court of Appeal decisions. An authoritative explanation of the legal framework in which CFAs operate is complemented by a host of practical tools such as checklists, model letters, model CFA clauses, and questionnaires that will prove invaluable to all PI lawyers. All claimant solicitors and barristers will derive substantial guidance on this fundamental change to the way personal injury cases are funded. Defendant PI lawyers will also find it useful as a way to gain an insight into the actions of their opponents.
