An estimate of costs should give you an indication of the likely amount that will be liable to our firm. In matters which are contested in Court, it is difficult to predict the manner in which the other side will conduct their case and for this reason, it is usually necessary for us to provide you with a range of estimates in cases that are litigated. We assess each case separately and we will assess, as best as we can at the outset, the amount of work that is involved in your case. We will give you a commitment that we will not exceed the estimate of costs which we have provided you without your knowledge and consent.

We usually issue accounts to clients on a monthly basis. We can assess specifics as to whether or not this is possible in your case. We recognise that it can be difficult at times to pay legal costs while a matter is ongoing before you have actually obtained any compensation. In some cases, we will agree not to issue any accounts at all until the matter has resolved.
