Legal aid: New family fee schemes
4 May 2011
The Legal Services Commission (LSC) will introduce two new family fee schemes on 9 May 2011:
The Family Advocacy Scheme: under this scheme, both solicitor advocates and barristers claim a single, graduated fee for advocacy work done on public and private family law cases.
The Private Family Law Representation Scheme: under this scheme, solicitors claim a standard fixed fee for work done (excluding advocacy) from the issue of proceedings to the conclusion of the final hearing.
Three new forms have been introduced to support the schemes and online training and guidance is available on the LSC website.
