At our initial meeting, we will listen to an outline of your situation, provide an initial generic assessment of your case and advice and information on our costs either on MS Teams or face to face
During this meeting, we will consider the information you have provided, find out more about your situation and advise you of the options and processes available to you. Meetings are charged at out hourly rate which varies between £240-£350 plus VAT per hour.
We have a range of standard charge out rates and once instructed, we provide full transparency of cost estimates and all charges and these are reviewed six monthly. We invoice separately for third party services e.g. barristers’ fees, court fees and other disbursements. Generally we invoice monthly to enable you to keep on top of the level of fees as your matter progresses.
We shall ask clients to make an initial payment on account before we begin work. The amount will depend on the nature and stage of the matter and the work anticipated. Where we are taking over proceedings that have already commenced, the payment on account requested may be higher to reflect the work required to review papers, understand the procedural history and prepare for forthcoming hearings or deadlines. Cost estimates will be discussed on an individual basis.
We require money on account before we can commence work on your behalf
