What is the CCMS?

CCMS stands for the Client and Costs Management System and was introduced by the Legal Aid Agency (LAA). The system enables legal aid providers to manage and oversee their application to the LAA in England and Wales. Fee earners, Costs Draftsmen, Costs Lawyers, legal aid providers, and other agents assigned to handle legal aid cases can utilise this system.

The CCMS is a secure and efficient platform that helps providers do a number of things related to applications, including submitting applications, managing client information, tracking the progress of a case, and submitting bills for payment.

The CCMS is an essential tool for legal aid providers and the LAA. It helps to ensure that legal aid is provided efficiently and effectively.

There are several benefits to utilising the CCMS, including:

  • Improved efficiency: The CCMS helps providers to streamline their case management processes and save time.
  • Reduced errors: The CCMS is a secure system that helps to reduce errors in case management and cost submissions.
  • Increased transparency: The CCMS provides a clear view of caseloads and costs, which helps to improve transparency.
  • Better data: The CCMS generates valuable data that can be used to improve legal aid services.

The CCMS is a constantly evolving system, and the LAA is committed to making it even more user-friendly and efficient. Our team of experienced Costs Draftsmen are well acquainted with the system and are able to offer high-quality training on how to use the CCMS to its full potential.
