MORE TIME TO SAVE ON COURT FEES

You haven't dipped into my 'Law Watch' video number 47? Shame on you. I there heralded a series of increases (and some decreases) in court and tribunal fees (and a couple of others) which were intended to take effect on 01 April 2025. The legislation required to give effect to the changes has since been published and will not come into force until 08 April 2025. That means you have extra time to save on the affected fees by rushing to take a step in proceedings which would be caught by the legislation or, in the case of a small number of decreases, going slow.

The legislation is the Court and Tribunal (Miscellaneous Amendments)  Order 2025 (SI 2025/351) which you can find here -

'LAW WATCH' IS BACK. LATEST FREE VIDEO IS OUT

I've gone video mad. Can't stop myself. Here is another. This time we look at extension of the £500 voucher scheme for  mediation in child disputes, where we are with the Merricks v Mastercard collective compensation claim - and the Supreme Court ruling on squatters' rights.

'LAW WATCH' VIDEO FOR MARCH '25

The sunshine is out. And so is my latest video which, in response to numerous pleas, is shorter than usual.  Save some money by prudent timing as many court - and some tribunal- fees are set to go up.  Extraordinarily, a small number are going down! Legislation to give effect to the ups and downs can be expected to come into force - on 1st April 2025!

The video also summarises residential leasehold changes in the law. Claims by Right to Manage companies become less risky and the qualifying condition for mixed used buildings is altered. Also, qualifying for freehold acquisition and lease extension is now easier.
