We pride ourselves on providing an excellent cost effective service.

We offer competitive rates with a charging structure to suit your needs. Our fees can be charged as a percentage of the profit costs or at an agreed hourly rate. Our fee is included within the bill at Grade B, C or D rates, as applicable

Following the decision in Crane v Canons Leisure [2007] EWCA Civ 1352 - the fees of external Costs Lawyers can be treated as Solicitors' work rather than as a disbursement. In CFA cases a success fee can also validly be charged on our fees. This may result in Clients making a profit from utilising our services.
