While not party to the judgment in Mazur & another v Charles Russell Speechlys [2025] EWHC 2341 (KB), CILEX is asking the Court of Appeal to exercise discretion to a person adversely affected by the outcome. It highlights that the case has led to delays in court as judges query the status of some lawyers, and through satellite litigation over costs, as well as causing firms to change their business models and leading to lawyers losing their jobs.
Iain Miller, partner at Kingsley Napley, who is advising CILEX pro bono, said: ‘Our extensive work in advising law firms over the last two months on the implications of the Mazur decision has brought home to us the severe impact this decision has had not only upon CILEX members but also the legal profession as a whole.’
