Costs Room - Legal Costs & Medico Legal Services’ Post

MEDICAL AGENCY FEE BREAKDOWN NOT REQUIRED. We were instructed on behalf of a Claimant Solicitor to recover a medical report fee arising from a Occupiers Liability claim. Damages were agreed post issue in the sum of £18,000.00. The Claimant claimed costs pursuant to Table 6D of CPR 45.29E and disbursements pursuant to CPR 45.29I. All cost items were agreed save for a dental report fee claimed at £3,222.82. The Defendant disputed the dental report fee and made a reduced offer whilst requesting a breakdown of the fees. Costs Room - Legal Costs & Medico Legal Services prepared an application for assessment of the disputed item. No breakdown was provided. The case proceeded to assessment at Aldershot & Farnham County Court on 21.10.24 and Deputy District Judge Paddington considered both parties lengthy written submissions and allowed the dental report fee in FULL. The Defendant was ordered to pay the Claimant's costs of the assessment.
