Our Costing Structure
We are required by the Solicitors Regulation Authority to publish information about our pricing in relation to certain services that we provide. This information can be found below. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
In respect of our personal injury type cases, we will offer our clients a Conditional Fee Agreement retainer, known as a ‘No Win No Fee Agreement’.
To offer a Conditional Fee Agreement, we must be satisfied that the case has prospects of success exceeding 50%. The terms of our Conditional Fee Agreements are fully explained within a Client Care Letter.
The fundamental features are as follows:
- If the case is unsuccessful then we will not raise a bill of costs to our clients for the work we have undertaken.
- If the case is successful, we often charge a Success Fee. The Success Fee is an amount that we deduct from the compensation recovered in successful cases. It is capped at a maximum of 25% of the compensation.
If we take cases on a private basis, then this means we charge our client on an hourly rate basis. The hourly rates that we charge will be agreed at the outset of the claim and range from Grade A to Grade D. The rates charged are shown below.
GRADE A
Grade A are solicitors or legal executives with over 8 years’ experience.
GRADE B
Grade B are solicitors or legal executives with over 4 years’ experience.
GRADE C
Grade C are solicitors or legal executives and fee earners of equivalent experience.
GRADE D
Grade D are trainee solicitors or paralegals.
