Hourly rate
We will confirm to you our hourly rate and make available an estimate of the amount of time which we consider will be required either to complete the legal work required or in respect of stages of the matter depending on complication. We are transparent in respect of our fees and will update you frequently on the costs of the matter.
We work to agreed hourly rates, as detailed below, with estimates for each stage of work provided in advance in our client care or updated letter.
If agreed to act for you under an hourly rate, our hourly rates are as follows:
| Principal | £340 excluding VAT per hour |
| Senior Solicitor | £300 excluding VAT per hour |
| Solicitor | £265 excluding VAT per hour |
| Trainee or paralegal | £150 excluding VAT per hour |
Fixed Fees
If we offer a fixed fee to complete the legal work required, we will let you know the cost at the beginning so that you have certainty and clarity in relation to the fees you will have to pay. We offer fixed fees for debt recovery work or the initial stages of a dispute.
Our fixed-fee, covers the initial stages of work, where we would provide you with advice, document review, a conference and a letter of claim for a fixed-fee. The amount of the fee would be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. We would charge between £1,350.00 and £2,800.00 excluding VAT for this initial work. This does not include the issuing of any claim at court. If we advised you to issue a claim at court, we would provide you an estimate of costs for each stage of work and for the case overall. In some cases, we may be able to offer fixed fees, for each stage of work after a claim is issued. More information on the process from issuing a claim, is available, please ask.
In larger debt recovery matters, or those with a degree of difficult, we may recommend that you obtain the advice of a barrister, or a barrister is retained for the draft of court documentation. We would instruct a barrister, only with your agreement and when you have been told the costs associated with this instruction. Typically, we would expect barristers in debt cases to charge between £200 and £500 per hour, excluding VAT - but often we would ask a barrister to fix their fee, for a discrete piece of work. If a barrister was involved in the drafting of court documents, we would expect them to charge between £1,500 and £3,500 excluding VAT and dependent on the volume of documentation the barrister has to review and the complexity of the matter.
In addition, a court fee of between £25 and £10,000 will be payable, depending on the value of the debt. You can request more information on court fees from us.
