CFA success fee 'excessive', Strasbourg rules in Daily Mail case: https://t.co/PW7OFE5Mqa
The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has ruled in favor of the Daily Mail's publisher, Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL), regarding the issue of 'success fees' paid to lawyers. The court determined that requiring media organizations to pay these fees when they lose a case constitutes a violation of free speech rights. This decision addresses concerns over excessive costs associated with Conditional Fee Agreements (CFAs), which the court found to be burdensome for media entities. The ruling is seen as a significant win for ANL, particularly as it challenges the financial implications of legal actions against the press.
