Employment Law
Employment Law cases are charged at an hourly rate of £235.00 plus VAT (£282.00 total).
We offer an initial free half hour consultation on all employment matters. During that initial appointment we can discuss the estimated costs of your case to conclusion and tailor those costs to your needs. We can also consider any Legal Expenses Insurance that could assist in funding some of the case.
As all employment matters are different, we can discuss with you the merits of your case and the possibility of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).
It is possible that your case will settle without the need for litigation but, if Court Proceedings are required in cases such as unfair/wrongful dismissal, costs are likely to be in the region of £15,000 – £25,000 to Trial.
In addition to the above we also undertake a variety of work some of which is carried out only on a Time Recorded Basis, as is set out below. Once the extent of the work to be undertaken is established we can advise in detail on the likely costs to completion of your matter.
Family Law (Private and Legal Aid Funded (where eligible)) – Areas Covered
We offer an initial free half hour consultation on all Family/Children Matters to include Online divorce (fixed fee); Financial Proceedings; Pre/Post Nuptial Agreements; Cohabitation Agreements/Disputes; Divorce; Children Proceedings; Special Guardianship and Adoption; Care Proceedings.
