What matters
PC fee set to decrease
The average practising certificate fee will fall by "more than a quarter in 2010/11 for the ‘typical’ fee-payer", according to the Gazette (8th July 2010) if proposals submitted to the Law Society Council are approved next week.

The introduction of the ‘fairer fees’ regime takes place in October. Under this, 40% of regulation costs will be paid by individual solicitors and 60% by private practice firms based on banded turnover.
