Compensation Bill [Lords]

If there were an exemption for small companies whose turnover was below a certain threshold, what would happen to individuals, such as those involved in the cases cited by my hon. Friend the Member for Bassetlaw (John Mann), who have been screwed by their lawyers? There should surely be recourse for such individuals, no matter what the size of the company.
