Handling Judicial Expenses in Scottish Cases

As the level of accounts of expenses presented in Scottish cases continues to rise, we will look at the underlying reasons and provide guidance on how best to tackle the trend. For those not familiar with accounts of expenses, this session will also provide a brief overview.

What we will cover:

• an introduction to judicial accounts of expenses;
• abating the account – what can come off?;
• cost building – how can it be minimised?; and
• additional fees – how much, and can they be avoided?
