ACCIDENT CLAIMS

Now that the CBA has failed to stand up to government at all, the fear is that legal welfare will be decimated. At least that's the view of Michael Mansfield QC, whose Mansfield Chambers has ‘broken rank'. The Chambers has called for an emergency meeting amongst the CBA's membership, for which there's already support... Mansfield's mob is not only the breakaway bunch calling for a time-out to assess the depth of Legal Aid cuts, either... 200 of those positions will go as a natural consequence of employees leaving or retiring. They won't be replaced.
