Lord Justice Jackson has been announced as the keynote speaker at this year’s Association of Costs Lawyer’s (ACL) conference, to be held on 20-21 October at the Park Plaza London Riverbank Hotel, London.

With budgeting, fixed costs and the new bill of costs under the spotlight, this is a busy time for costs lawyers. Delegates can expect a strong lineup of judges and specialist speakers, and debate on the main costs issues facing the legal profession.

The conference is aimed at costs lawyers and trainees, and any lawyers keen to keep up with the latest developments in litigation costs.
