SRA costs.
I am totally out of touch with costs.
A claim for £32,000 in costs for a case where no dishonesty and no loss to client and which presumably required the SRA to check to see if a form signed by the client was in the files.
How many hours spent on this? Who did they use a QC? what on earth was their hourly rate?
A bill of costs which reduced by over 1/3 is in itself shocking. If a crimial legal aid firm put in such inflated claims I woukd imagine the SRA might investigate them. Wonder who is policing the SRA?
