Competitive Private Fees

We find that most clients prefer the certainty of an agreed fixed fee for work conducted on their behalf. This helps to create transparency and when we quote a fixed fee, there are no hidden costs, we will not charge you additional fees for travel, mileage, parking, train tickets etc.

We do tailor our quotations for particular work. Please call or email us for further details. We offer an initial free telephone consultation where legal fees can be discussed. There are people who we would advise to represent themselves, perhaps for low level matters where the sentence guidelines are clear.

A Guilty Plea and mitigation hearing at the Magistrates Court is likely to cost between £500.00 and £750.00 depending on where your case is heard and the type of work involved preparing your case. Where a client is a “totter and an “exceptional hardship” application is to be presented our fee would be between £500.00 and £750.00.

Where you instruct us to ask the court to find “special reasons” a hearing which is akin to a trial will attract a fee of £1,000.00

Legal advice and assistance sought in relation to Single Justice Procedure Notices will cost £200.00.

Typical fees for a one-day trial at the Magistrates Court including trial preparation and the trial hearing would be in the region of £2000.00 subject to the conclusion of the case in a day.

For contested matters at the Crown Court, we are able to offer both in house advocacy services or we are often able to negotiate favourable rates using our well-established contacts for a number of specialist Barristers.

Our chargeable hourly rates can be provided on request.

Charges are subject to disbursements &  VAT.
