Personal Injury
Personal injury litigation runs on tight protocols and complex funding arrangements. Obiter tracks every step — from instruction to settlement — so nothing falls through the cracks on a conditional fee case.
The Personal Injury challenge
PI work is some of the most process-intensive litigation in UK practice. Conditional fee structures, pre-action protocol obligations, multi-track medical evidence, and the 2023 fixed recoverable costs reforms all create a dense web of deadlines, calculations, and compliance requirements. Without a system built for PI, critical steps get missed — and on a CFA case, a missed step can cost you the file.
CFA and DBA agreements require precise risk assessment
Medical report requests and responses are difficult to track
Pre-action protocol deadlines are easy to miss
Fixed recoverable costs calculations are complex and vary by track
Rehabilitation referrals need careful case management
