What’s it all about?

This webinar is all about the key PI-related procedure decisions that were made last year. This will bring you fully up-to-date on issues such as –

  1. Fundamental dishonesty
    There were a number of developments regarding fundamental dishonesty in 2018. These arose as a result of two cases: London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (In Liquidation) v Sinfield [2018] EWHC 51 (QB) and Wright v Satellite Information Services Ltd [2018] EWHC 812 (QB). We will look at the areas of concern for personal injury claimant solicitors and will discuss the traps to avoid.
  2. Defendants contacting claimants within the portal
    Should a defendant attempt to contact a claimant directly within the portal, and subsequently reach a direct settlement with the claimant, what does it mean for you? This was pertinent to the case of Gavin Edmondson Solicitors Ltd v Haven Insurance Co Ltd [2018] UKSC 21. We take a look at the court’s attitude to such scenarios, with a particular emphasis on solicitor cost entitlement.
  3. Cost consequences of Part 36 Offers and exiting the portal
    What are the likely cost consequences of portal fixed exits and Part 36 offers? We explore the case law developments that arose last year as a result of the following three cases: Hislop v Perde; Kaur v Committee (for the time being) of Ramgarhia Board Leicester [2018] EWCA Civ 1726; and Tuson v Murphy [2018] EWCA Civ 1461; and Shalaby v London North West Healthcare NHS Trust [2018] EWCA Civ 1323.
  4. QOCS rules in respect of additional defendants
    What is the effect of the latest decisions when assessing the QOCS rules in respect of additional defendants. We take a look at this question in relation to the case of Corstorphine (A Child) v Liverpool City Council.

What Our Clients Say

The problem when attending any personal injury legal training course is knowing whether you are actually going to learn anything new or find a different perspective, or whether you will just hear the same things that you have heard many, many times before.

The good news with MASS Training is that you know it is always going to be the former case. MASS’ courses are practical, informative and excellent value for money. My staff always come back feeling inspired and energised by having their existing knowledge and expertise confirmed, but also by picking up some new practical steps that they can immediately implement to make them more efficient in their day to day tasks.

I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in wholeheartedly recommending MASS Training to anyone looking for Personal Injury Training. It is the best training available.

MASS Training provide excellent content. The fact that they are in the main practising solicitors or legal executives means that not only do they fully understand their specialist subject matter, but they also know how to use this knowledge in the day to day running of their case load.

If they are not currently running a course covering the area of law that they are interested I know that if I suggest it to them they will be happy to prepare a course for us either in-house or generally within a matter of weeks.

We have in the past, and continue to, send our staff on the MASS Diploma Course, an excellent opportunity to develop essential skills and understanding for running RTA matters. If you are not yet ensuring your staff attend MASS Training courses, you are missing out on some of the best Personal Injury Training available.

Very informative. Easy to understand. Not a typical course which you can easily lose concentration

Thoroughly enjoyed it! It was both informative and practical, the fact it was quite hands on and interactive made the subject matter come to life and the topic elements sink in to some sort of structure! I feel like I actually understand some of the fundamental elements
