Costs and litigation funding

Gatehouse Chambers

Offering a ‘well-skilled costs team at all levels’, Gatehouse Chambers members are well-versed at handling complex appellate cases, as well as assisting litigation teams on applications for security for costs, wasted costs and non-party costs orders. The ’superb’ PJ Kirby KC continues to regularly advise on detailed assessments, costs budgeting and funding arrangements; having recently led Martyn Griffiths in Wilkins v Serco, a case of fundamental importance to the extension of the fixed costs regime. In Abbott v Ministry of Defence, Robin Dunne acts for the MoD in the determination of the costs arising from the claimant’s solicitors incurring in excess of £3m in issuing claims following the High Court finding that they could not be issued on one claim form.
