COSTS, COSTS BUDGETING AND MAKING A LIVING: THE PREQUEL TO THE ESSENTIAL CHECKLIST

The fourth in our “essential checklist” series was prepared by a group that called itself “Group H”.  The checklist addresses issues relating to recording and recovering costs.

This was the only group where I was involved in some “genetic engineering”. The groups were selected at random.  However I made sure that the one costs lawyer on the course was moved to that group.

The blog post on links to filling in Form H is the second most popular post on this blog (the most popular – apart from Mitchell Watch and the regular update section – being  serving witness statements late an extremely dangerous practice).

The links to posts specifically on costs are:-
