Rugby Claimants Face £2.8m Legal Bill

Brain injury claimants in the ongoing rugby legal action are facing a £2.8m legal bill that needs 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 the judge described as the 'contradictory and misguided approach' of Rylands Garth, the solicitors' firm who previously represented the players.

The case remains 'in crisis' as claimants struggle to cover the substantial legal fees, with the majority needing to be settled this month to avoid further setbacks in their pursuit of compensation for brain injuries sustained during their rugby careers. sportnewz.click
