How to …..April 2103
As Breakfast seminars go, it wasn’t too early a start and the promise of bacon sandwiches with coffee had convinced even the faint hearted amongst us that it was worth attending the costs budgeting seminar at Leeds this morning!
We were fortunate to welcome Barrister Gordon Exall (from Zenith Chambers) as guest speaker alongside Lee Coulthard, Costs Draftsman both of whom had been briefed to focus on practical matters relating to costs budgeting.
Topics reviewed included the new rules, tips to prepare the budget, how to keep in budget and a series of tactical considerations on both sides. The case of Henry was also reviewed however as this is awaiting decision on appeal, there was little to add at this stage save for the message set out in the typically robust visual image supplied by Gordon Exall
Call us if you are looking for practical assistance on costs budgeting or would like to run the seminar in-house for your team. There is a lot we can be doing now ahead of the changes in order to prepare for reform.
