What is the appropriate management fee for personal injury claims?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Foniciello, et al. v Bendall and Acculine, et al., 2016 ONSC 1119 (CanLII):

With respect to a management fee for personal injury claims, I accept the analysis made by Glass J. in the case of Morrison v. Greig, [2007] O.J. No. 225. At paragraph 72-74, Glass J. reviewed the case law with respect to management fees in personal injury actions and determined that a reasonable management fee was 5% of the award. In my view, this amount is appropriate in the present case.
