Civil Bill Assessment Manual – October 2003

Subsequent to increase in threshold for LSC assessments from £1000 to £2500, following consultation with the Law Society, Legal Aid Practitioners Group, The Bar Council, Association of Law Costs Draftsmen and others, the Commission’s guidance on the assessment of civil certificated work was published. Preceding the Costs Assessment Guidance released with the new fees schemes under the Unified Contract in October 2007, the Civil Bill Assessment Manual was not a document of contractual authority but set out many of the policies given in the Costs Assessment Guidance.
