How much is this going to cost me?
Our fixed fee pricing structure
The aim of a fixed fee is to ensure that legal costs are kept to a minimum. If a defendant is successful, a Defence Costs Order (DCO) is usually granted by the court. A DCO entitles a firm to apply for the costs associated with representing a client. A defendant may then receive some, or all, of the costs they’ve paid.
Cost Certainty is Crucial
Additional legal costs can be hidden in small print and terms of business. We believe that cost certainty is crucial and that transparency is the key to a successful solicitor/client relationship. No hidden costs. No nasty surprises. All our fees are made clear from the outset, usually during our initial phone call with you.
Feel free to ask us about our fixed fee pricing structure. You may be surprised to find out that a unique defence strategy developed by a specialist motoring defence practice isn’t as expensive as you first thought. All our fixed fees are truly fixed.
Following a case victory, we will instruct one of our Cost Recovery Administrators to process your Defence Costs Order. This entitles you to claim back your legal fees from the Central Funds Office (subject to assessment).
