Form Completion Fee
When time is spent going through forms to assess a client’s eligibility for means, and:
- The form was submitted to the court, and they formally failed the means test before a hearing took place
Or
- The form was not submitted to the court on the basis that the solicitor was certain the client would not pass the means test
And
- The client does not proceed to instruct you as a private client
A refused means test form completion fee of £25 + VAT can be claimed.
To claim the Form Completion Fee:
- Complete a CDS11 for the case in which Form Completion Fee is being claimed.
- Complete a claim line on the CDS6 form and enter the code for the Form Completion Fee (PROU).
- Submit CDS6 claim. (See LSC Online for further details on submitting monthly claims).
