Key facts

- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether this dispute carries costs, before any claim is sent.
- Do not claim an internal review where the regulation says no costs are payable.
- Do not copy one scheme's no-costs list onto a claim in another scheme.
- Keep medical details in the firm's system. Apply ASCR rule 9, APP 11, and the Privacy Act notifiable-breach test.
