Jason Mansell was instructed by Jill Lorimer of Kingsley Napley LLP to advise a claims management company in respect of its application for authorisation.

When instructed initially the FCA had invited the firm to withdraw its application or enter into a voluntary variation of its temporary permission (VREQ) preventing it from carrying out claims management activity.  The Firm declined to provide the VREQ sought and through correspondence alone obtained its full authorisation without the need for any litigation.
