Payment methods
There are various options for funding legal proceedings. In some cases, there are funds within an insolvent estate to cover the costs. A third party such as a creditor or an unconnected litigation funder may provide funding. Depending on the circumstances, some professionals may work on a contingent basis and be paid from recoveries.
Cost Recovery in Court Proceedings
In court proceedings in England and Wales, the usual approach is that the losing party pays at least a proportion of the costs of the winning party at the end of the case.
