 Associated Newspapers Ltd legal costs
Topic Originator: ipswichpar

So Prince Harry and 6 others have got to make an initial payment to ANL of the thick end of £10m to cover legal costs.

Some of the 6 others are minted (like Elton John), but others may not be.... like Doreen Lawrence and Simon Hughes.

Does anybody know how this works? Do they insure themselves before the case is raised, or are they going to be bankrupted?

Bit more detail here. Including how the costs could still rise for them.

Lawrence’s costs are expected to be covered by the others.

Quite the win for the Daily Mail.

Thanks Turps.

I hope for their sakes that any final payments is within the amount of insurance they put in place.

“The claimants had insurance to cover up to £16.2m of Association Newspapers` costs in the event of losing the case - but Friday`s ruling means the newspaper group could now try to recover up to the £34.5m that it said it had to spend to defend itself. This means the Duke and others could face a bill of some £18m.”

They’ll just have to cough the rest up or raise appeals which could make the ceiling cost rise even more if they’re unsuccessful.

I t makes you wonder why Harry & Co are coming back to the UK. I can`t imagine ANL will give them an easy time.

Makes you wonder why people are more concerned with slagging off Prince Harry than his paedo uncle...

Sounds like the judge has it in for them tbh. Id imagine they are coming back to give their kids a British education rather than an American one. Megan looking to get back into acting too by the sounds of it.

Andrew may be a wrong ‘un, but he’s not a paedo i.e. he’s not into pre-pubescent children as far as I’m aware.
