The rise of litigants in person – challenges and strategies

We are delighted to be hosting our local authority webinar where we will discuss the rise in claims brought by litigants in person. It presents unique challenges including poorly pleaded cases, disproportionate demands on resources and the increasing use of AI tools to generate claims which appear credible at first glance, but can lack any real substance.

This webinar will explore how the profile of the litigant in person is changing and the practical difficulties this creates. We will focus on strategies for identifying risk early, managing claims consistently and cost effectively, and using procedural tools and case management tactics to control cost, reputational exposure and disruption.
