Injured people face an “ever tightening screw” and claimant lawyers must be “better at everything we do”, according to the new president of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL).
In his inaugural speech at the 2011 APIL annual conference this week, David Bott will reaffirm the association’s position that it is “plain wrong” for injury victims to take a cut of up to 25 per cent of their rightful compensation to meet some legal costs.
“In my view, and as president of APIL, I believe that payment in full is the minimum that individuals in the UK should expect and demand,” David will tell delegates on 14 April.
