Fee structures and pricing models

Members of Chambers cover a wide variety of work, therefore a variety of pricing models are available. The most common are fixed fee, hourly rates, brief and refresher fees and Conditional Fee Agreements.

​

Professional, licensed and public access clients may contact the clerks to obtain a quotation for legal services.

 

Service expectations

Members of Chambers will endeavour to provide legal services promptly and efficiently to meet agreed deadlines. However, there may be occasions when timescales cannot be met due to:

• Counsel’s availability

• Availability of the client or relevant third parties

• Complexity of the case and quantity of documents to be considered

• The need for additional information or documents 

 

Complaints

Members of Chambers strive to provide an outstanding service to all their clients. However, if you do have any concerns we will make every effort to resolve them and we have both formal and informal procedures in place for you to raise your concerns.
