Hailsham Chambers have established ‘an excellent reputation for costs’, having been highly active in the recent significant developments related to litigation funding following the PACCAR judgment, the fallout from the Belsner case concerning solicitor-client costs, and the extension of the fixed recoverable costs regime. Jamie Carpenter KC acted for Bugsby Property LLC in the first dispute between litigation funders and a successfully funded client to reach the courts since PACCAR, with the High Court rejecting the first attempt to use the judgment to invalidate a previously agreed litigation funding agreement. ’On the top of his game in this practice area’, Imran Benson successfully represented the respondent in Paper Mache Tiger v Mathews, an important High Court judgment on non-party costs orders in the situation of small businesses. Stephen Bailey was also successful for the respondents in Kindertons Ltd v Murtagh & Esure Services, with the decision of the High Court providing a significant win for insurers in relation to non-party costs orders.
