Before taking on new clients the firm will
undertake a conflict check to ensure that there are no professional reasons why
we cannot act. Assuming no conflict exists, all clients will be asked to sign an
engagement letter. This letter sets out both the level of service that the firm
provides and the basis upon which you will be charged for our work.
The majority of our legal work is charged for on
the basis of an hourly rate with bills being sent out at the end of each month.
Rates vary depending on the seniority and experience of the fee earner involved.
If asked to do so we will provide an estimate of our fees before commencing
work.
Some services are undertaken on a fixed fee basis
while in some cases, where the scope and extent of the work is clear from the
outset, it may be possible to agree a fixed fee.
For more information on fees please speak to the
contact your CCA lawyer or
email us at your convenience.
