IWe offer a 'free' 45 minute consulation in all of our work areas. The figures below are intended  to provide a good indication of the likely costs involved in your case. Each case is diferent in terms of the amount of preparatory work involved and the number of witnesses required, so the costs of the case may vary. During your free consultation, you wil be given a binding, 'agreed fee figure'. (Provided that there is sufficient prosecution evidence available to make the assessment). 

​

Depending on the nature of the case, there may be third party costs or 'disbursements' that are not included in our fees. These costs could include experts. an interpreter, process server etc. For example if you were a defendant in a driving with excess alcohol case and wished to raise the defence of 'post incident consumption', we would need to commission an expert to carry out a 'back calculation'.
