Fixed fee
Suitable where the work can be defined clearly at the outset, such as certain documents, reviews or straightforward transactions.
Fees
Clear scope. Agreed basis. No ambiguity.
No two legal matters are identical. We explain what the work involves, how it will be charged and what may change before substantive work begins.
How we charge
The right model for the work.
We may offer a fixed fee for defined work or charge by time spent where the matter is less predictable. The engagement terms will set this out.
Time spent
Used where the scope may evolve, negotiation is unpredictable or the work depends on decisions by other parties.
Staged scope
Larger matters can be separated into agreed phases, giving you a decision point before the next stage begins.

✓What would trigger a change in scope or cost
Why there are no generic price tables here.
Publishing an attractive figure without understanding the transaction would not give you a reliable cost. A short initial conversation lets us identify the work and provide a more useful scope. Where regulatory price-transparency rules apply to a service, the required detail will be provided before that service is offered through the site.
