Rugby Claimants Face £2.8m Legal Bill

The claimants in the ongoing legal action over brain injuries in rugby have been left facing a £2.8m legal bill owed to the defendants. The majority of these fees need to be settled by the end of October if the case is to continue in its current form.

The costs are a direct consequence of delays caused by what Senior Master Cook, the judge in the case, described as the 'contradictory and misguided approach' of Rylands Garth, the solicitors' firm who represented the players until earlier this year. The case remains 'in crisis' with urgent payment requirements. chickenroadslot.pro
