Lawyers acting for former clients of Slater and Gordon have gone to court to ask whether the national firm profited from undisclosed commissions on insurance policies.
The Senior Courts Costs Office today heard submissions for more than two hours on Friday in
Piper v Slater & Gordon following a request from the claimant. The request, under Part 18 of the civil procedure rules, was essentially inquiring whether Slater and Gordon received a commission or other financial benefit from after-the-event insurance policies signed as part of retainers with personal injury clients.
The
Gazette has previously reported that more than 100 claims have been brought by former Slater and Gordon clients, now represented by costs recovery business checkmylegalfees.com, in respect of ATE insurance deductions.
