This is absolutely disgraceful behaviour by one of the leading clinical negligence firms, and it's a racing certainty that if they were doing it hundreds of lesser-known firms will have been jumping on the same bandwagon to rip off the taxpayer and, it would appear, their own clients at the same time.

It also illustrates what a shocking licence to print money the old style CFA's were, how grossly unfair they were to defendants and how in circumstances like this they created an unbridgeable conflict of interest between greedy lawyers and their clients - with the clients inevitably coming off worse.

What's most nauseating is firms like IM bleating about the reforms to costs denying access to justice, when it's quite clear that what they're really concerned about is denying their access to the gravy train.
