Using a case study analysis, the article identifies the main criticisms of the current court review process of CIP remuneration. Central to such criticisms are the practical difficulties of judicial officers applying the principles of reasonableness and proportionality in reviewing CIP remuneration claims. In answering the two research questions, CIP remuneration reforms outlined in the Insolvency Law Reform Act 2016, as well as alternative review measures, are considered.
