Get it right from the start – reduce the likelihood of being negotiated down
When you successfully defend a claim the last thing you want to see is a reduction of your legal costs, especially if you’ve paid out on some of these costs already. By applying our unique insight and experience in cost negotiation, we will expertly draft the formal bill of costs and, if necessary, defend this in negotiations and at Detailed Assessment hearings.
Our costs drafting service includes preparing schedules or formal Bill of Costs, preparing and serving detailed assessment proceedings, preparing Replies to Points of Dispute and Dealing with Part 18 Requests.
We will also provide case specific advice on offers throughout the negotiation process and with rights of audience, represent your best interests at any detailed assessment hearing through to enforcement.
We’ve found that our charges are very competitive and are usually recoverable in full from the other side. What’s more, dependant on your preference, this service works in two ways – we can either check your solicitor’s between the parties bill, or we can draft it for them.
After all, you use an expert litigation lawyer to defend you against the claim, so why not choose an expert cost lawyer to defend your costs?
