How Much Will It Cost?
We offer an initial free, no-obligation chat over the phone to outline your options and the possible costs.
We are always clear to clients about the potential costs of any option and offer a range of payment options. In some cases we can offer clients a fixed price package. If we cannot, we charge based on the time we spend on your case, including meetings, emails, phone calls and court representations.
Depending on your case and circumstances, you may also need to cover outlays, such as court costs or payments to independent experts. We will set out our fees and likely extra costs at the start and keep you informed of any possible changes as your case progresses.
Please note we do not offer Legal Aid for this service.
