COMMENCING A COSTS ASSESSMENT: DO NOT RUN OUT OF TIME!

Section 198 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law (LPUL) stipulates that if a solicitor or client wishes to commence a costs assessment, they must do so within 12 months of the ‘final’ invoice. (Note- this timeframes only apply to solicitor/client assessments, not party/party assessments).
