Legal Costs In Public Liability Cases

Public liability cases are generally fought hard by the Insurance Companies. They are nearly always litigated in Court. This makes them amongst the most expensive cases to maintain. However if you are ultimately successful in your claim, the majority of your legal costs may be paid by the Insurer. This is subject to the value of the claim being over $100,000.00 as the recoverable legal costs in claims less than this are restricted. You should discuss the issue of costs with your lawyer.
