keoghs – The Calm Before the Storm

I recently watched Leon, which is one of my favourite films from yesteryear. I was struck by Gary Oldman’s line just before his team of corrupt police officers raid a property: “I like these calm little moments before the storm. It reminds me of Beethoven. Can you hear it?”

In the world of costs, it seems as though things move quicker than any other area of law. Just as you become familiar with a principle, rule, procedure or court form, a revision or amendment will throw you back into the shadows of uncertainty. As we approach the end of 2022, significant reform is once again upon us. Perhaps this is a last opportunity to enjoy the calm before impending changes throw us all into chaos (again). But what exactly is on the horizon?
