Family and Litigation Fees

The information below is designed to help you estimate the likely costs involved. We will always provide you with an estimate at the outset based on the information you give us. However, we may need to revise the original estimate if the matter is more complex than first anticipated or if additional factors arise. We will keep you informed about progress, as well as any variation in fees or additional charges that may occur. All of our fees attract VAT at the current rate unless stated otherwise.

We aim to ensure our fee information is clear, so you can make informed decisions about how you would like us to support you.

During the consultation, we will:
