The trouble is, post LASPO, every ex RTA PI fee earner in the country is looking to make £30-40,000 in fees from a £3,000 CN case.

Simply allowing the firm to take a cut from damages only and increase the measure of damages is the answer. INcidentially, much more than Simmos v Castle.

That way, £3,000 cases would not get taken on.

IN fact nothing below £100,000 should be litigated in CN owing to he high costs.

Instead of the above the NHSLA will waste time rolling out the CN portal which will not solve the problem but simply play into the hands of factory firms (who are even worse at assessing claims as they are referrer fed for the most part) with their de-skilled robots appeased by minimum wage increases.

Still what woud I know, only doing 100% CN for the past several years. Best to rely on an Insurer's view !
