Echo Law is proposing to act on behalf of group members on the basis that a Group Costs Order will be sought. A Group Costs Order is an order that can be made by the Supreme Court of Victoria, which means that the legal costs payable to the law practice representing the group members will be calculated as a percentage of any award or settlement that may be recovered in the proposed proceeding.
In no circumstances will group members ever be out of pocket by participating in the proposed class action – whether the case is successful or unsuccessful.
