The Mazur appeal ruling is in — and it’s brought clarity.

After a period of uncertainty, the Court of Appeal has confirmed that litigation is not restricted solely to solicitors. The earlier interpretation has been overturned, and we are effectively back to the long-established position.

For businesses, this means:
• No disruption to debt recovery
• No sudden increase in legal costs
• No need to change your approach

We’ve set out what the ruling means in plain English below.

Most importantly, it’s a reminder that while legal headlines come and go, the fundamentals remain the same — strong credit control and early action are key to getting paid.
