Abstract

The UK’s collective action regime has not taken off as many predicted, partly because the majority of funders (and lawyers) believe that success fees can only be received post-distribution (Rule 93(4)). This article shows that belief is based on an incorrect, simplistic, reading of the legislation and CAT Rules.
