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.

*MEDICAL AGENCY FEE BREAKDOWN NOT REQUIRED - ANOTHER COUNTY COURT DECISION* Another example which in particular highlights the divergence in approach to fixed costs and non-fixed costs matters, though in the Craven case I shared earlier this week it was clear the court felt it retained discretion to order breakdowns where there was a sizeable sum in dispute (or it appeared disproportionate). Fixed Costs matters are not subject to Hoskins and moreover are designed to be a summary exercise. There are compelling arguments to treat fixed costs matters differently to detailed assessment cases.

Furthermore, the medical field is already one of the most prestigious scientific fields, with complex terminology, attracting some of society’s brightest minds.
