fees transparency

TRANSPARENCY STATEMENT

Our clerks are able to provide fee estimates and will quote on a fixed fee or hourly rate basis dependant on the requirements of those instructing

and tailored to the demands of international clients.


Fees & Timescales

Transparent, Fair, and Predictable

Our chambers is committed to clarity in costs and timescales from the outset.

Barristers may charge:
  • Hourly rates
  • Fixed fees (“brief fees”)
  • Hybrid arrangements

All fees are discussed with the clerks and typically agreed before any work begins. 

Timescales

Timeframes depend on:

  • The complexity of the matter
  • Barrister availability
  • Court or tribunal listing
  • The conduct of the other party
  • The amount of papers you need to review, the need for additional information for documents

 

Our clerks will always provide realistic expectations tailored to your case. They will also keep you updated on timescales and changes which may have an effect on your case.    We endeavour always to work within a client’s requested time scale, however short that may be. In circumstances where a deadline cannot be met, the client will be informed at the earliest opportunity.  Please be aware that in the majority of cases the fee being quoted will be a net figure and VAT will need to be added unless specifically stated otherwise.
