While the market was just beginning to settle and adjust post-Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LASPO), a second round of reforms are due to come into play. The Civil Liability Bill will raise the limit in the small claims track to 5,000 for road traffic accident (RTA) claims and 2,000 for all other personal injury claims. For RTA-related soft tissue injury claims it will additionally introduce claims tariffs and ban pre-medical offers. However, any benefits from upcoming reforms will be cancelled out by the change in the Ogden rate from 2.5% to -0.75%, which has increased claims costs for insurers. Claims management companies (CMCs) are continuing to consolidate and diversify their profits. A Financial Guidance and Claims Bill will strengthen the regulation of CMCs. Regulators continue to audit the market and issue fines for unlawful behavior such as nuisance calls. Solicitors are also consolidating and under financial stress.
