The Civil Litigation (Expenses and Group Proceedings) (Scotland) Act 2018 (Success Fee Agreements) Regulations 2020 come into force today, 27th April 2020. These new regulations are designed to ensure that parties pursuing litigation in Scotland have as clear as possible an understanding about the costs involved to them in pursuing a Court action. The regulations will also regulate success fee agreements (also known as no-win, no-fee agreements). The regulations define the amount a person pursuing a claim can be asked to pay their Solicitor and puts a cap on the amount of damages a Solicitor can recover from the overall damages recovered once the case concludes.
