Excessive bills you say? Yes, as a former Claimant PI solicitor (i moved away because i could see which way the Jackson wind was blowing) I have seen some "excessive" bills, often made excessive by insurers failing to read their papers properly, or even at all (apparently), ignoring part 36 offers, raising knee jerk defences that had little chance of success, etc, etc. There were some insurers (no names) who had such a poor record of responding in the protocol period that we would pretty much have our pro-forma PADA ready from day one. The threat of mounting costs would sometimes focus their minds to the task of responding in an intelligent fashion to the claim. No particular incentive to do so now. I am not sure who you are Mr Anonymous, but I did not become a lawyer to make heaps of money and i dislike your sterotype of lawyers. I hope you are not one yousrself.
