Universal Credit & the CRU - Unravelling the Problems for Personal Injury Litigators

Introduction

This webinar will address one of the most problematic areas of CRU work in personal injury litigation at this time.

The issue of universal credit has been problematic for personal injuries litigators since its implementation. Since the pandemic though, the numbers of persons in receipt of universal credit has increased significantly, and there are now many cases where CRU certificates feature universal credit payments of tens of thousands of pounds, and this is now starting to act as a block to settlement of the claim.

It is a very relevant and current topic for personal injury litigators.
