'Devlin said the proof that more unmeritorious claims were being lodged was that the number of claims defended without settlement rose from 70% to 80% in 2015.'

This statement bares the possibly of a huge massaging of the truth which I believe needs to be scrutinised. Where we have been given no supporting evidence whatsoever or have been made privy to any of the reasonings 'behind' why it was that those claims which were unsuccessful,failed.

There are a multitude of reasons why this could have been the outcome, for one in this current climate, a large number of Litigants in Persons who have found themselves ill prepared and or ill-knowledged and or unqualified enough to tackle such gauntlets alone. Yet alone a lack of available financial resources to then see such matters through to the bitter end.
