Team Services
The Costs Team at Irwin Mitchell provides national coverage to internal and external clients and currently has 136 team members. The Team provides a comprehensive service to clients from the start of the litigation with advice regarding funding and costs estimating, during the litigation with Costs Budgeting being the main work referred into the team in this area and then in relation to costs disputes at conclusion of the litigation.
Irwin Mitchell’s full-service structure gives our costs lawyers an unrivalled breadth of experience including areas of law as diverse as serious injury, clinical negligence, commercial litigation, family and Court of Protection matters. We also employ a number of highly specialised Costs Lawyers in areas such as legal aid billing and Court of Protection costs, who can offer a deep understanding of the most complex cases.
Within recent years, members of the team have sat on the Council of the Association of Cost Lawyers (the professional body for costs lawyers), the board of the ACLT (who provide training for costs lawyers) and the board of the CLSB (the regulator for costs lawyers). We have also provided submissions to various government consultations, including the recent reviews regarding costs budgeting, hourly rates and fixed costs.
