At the initial stage, to review all documentary evidence, discuss the matter and provide guidance and assistance with drafting a compliant Pre-Action Protocol Letter of Claim, our charge for this service is £250.00 (subject to the extent of the documents and nature of the dispute).
Thereafter, our hourly rates for single debts to be recovered are £90.00. The amount charged to recover your debt will depend upon the amount of time spent. As an example, for Stage One, the fee is likely to be no more than one hour of work at the above hourly rate. To progress to the end of Stage Two and secure a judgment in an uncontested matter, the additional fee is likely to be no more than three hours of work at the above hourly rate; however, we cap this to £250.00.
After the issue of proceedings, the debtor may dispute the claim and make a counter claim, at which point, we will provide you with guidance and thus additional fees would be applicable based on our hourly rate structure.
Court fees are also determined by the value of your claim and are currently set at:
Claim value - Court Issue Fee
Up to £300 - £35.00
£300 to £500 - £50.00
