Can I make a claim now the VWF AND COPD schemes are concluded?
Whilst the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Compensation Scheme is now concluded and no new claims can be made under the Scheme you can choose to make a common law claim (i.e. through the normal court route) if you have not made a claim before. You will need to appoint a solicitor to act on your behalf. Common law rules in relation to costs will apply meaning should your claim be unsuccessful you are at risk for costs incurred defending the claim. For claims relating to Respiratory Conditions (chronic bronchitis, emphysema, small airways disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and temporary exacerbation of asthma), British Coal Respiratory Diseases Litigation Court Order 2010/190 stated that from 4.00pm on 17 December 2010 the Court stay placed upon claims by Sir Michael Turner has been removed. If you do decide to make a claim then under the British Coal Respiratory Diseases Litigation Court Order 2010/190 it should be issued by your chosen solicitor in the Royal Co
