Their expertise often leads to reduced costs through effective negotiation strategies. All our Costs Lawyers and Costs draftsmen are also highly skilled advocates who have a wealth of experience.

Enhance the efficiency of your operations. By handling cost-related matters, legal costs advisors can free up your time to focus on core legal issues and case strategy, leading to improved overall efficiency. We are able to advise upon and provide analysis of data in a wealth of formats, not only to simplify and optimise case management. This can make information much easier to digest for everyone involved.
  3. Meet the latest compliance and regulations. Staying compliant with legal billing regulations and guidelines is crucial. Our legal costs advisors have wide ranging experience in the preparation and justification of bills of costs in the UK and a number of jurisdictions (to include Europe, the USA, China, the Cayman Islands, Bahamas and BVI, Channel Islands and Eire). We can therefore provide clear and comprehensive advice. You can also easily check the latest news in regards to legal costs on our website.
