2021 is a landmark year in the funding of personal injury litigation in Scotland. Long awaited changes in relation to damages based agreements (DBAs) and qualified one way cost shifting (QOCS) have finally been implemented. This concise work is essential reading for anyone practicing in the field of personal injury, whether acting principally for insurers or pursuers. As well as including all the key statutory provisions, the book looks to cases in other jurisdictions with similar (but not identical) provisions and analyses how relevant those cases might be in this jurisdiction.
