Practitioners are invited to voice their views on the future of civil justice at a conference with Lord Justice Briggs, who is currently leading the Civil Courts Structure Review.
The Westminster Legal Policy Forum conference, in London on 23 May, will discuss costs, funding and new court structures. Sir Rupert Jackson’s proposal for fixed costs for claims up to £250,000 will be another key topic.
Briggs LJ will be joined by Professor Rachael Mulheron, from the Civil Justice Council, and NLJ columnist Professor Roger Smith, the former director of Justice.
