Electronic Bills of Costs

The 92nd update to the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) has implemented one of the most significant and revolutionary changes in the legal costs field, namely the electronic Bill of Costs. This has been a mandatory requirement in the SCCO and County Courts from 6 April 2018.

The requirement for an electronic Bill of Costs is applicable to all Part 7 multi-track claims except where proceedings are subject to fixed costs or scale costs, cases where the receiving party is a Litigant in Person or circumstances where the Court has ordered otherwise.

Our team have extensive experience of preparing Bills in fully electronic format or “hybrid” Bills for cases that fall within the pre and post 6 April transitional period.
