Fees

---

We are direct and transparent on the subject of fees.

We believe our services to be exceptionally good value for money and are confident our clients cannot find better value elsewhere.

If you ask us to undertake a project for you, our preference is always to quote you a single fixed fee for undertaking the work.  We believe that this creates more certainty in the relationship for both sides.

If the work is of a nature where it is impossible to accurately assess our fees (because, for example, we cannot tell at the outset how much work will be required) we will most likely offer you an 'hourly rate' for our services.  In some circumstances, we may be prepared to 'cap' this amount - so you never pay more than a fixed amount regardless of the time we spend assisting you.     

It is generally our practice to ask you to pay a proportion of the fees 'upfront' before we begin an assignment.  In any event, prior to commencing work we will always provide you with a written statement of our basis for charging and the scope of work to be performed by us.  Any disbursements (money spent on your behalf), expenses (costs incurred by us whilst assisting you) and taxes (such as VAT for EU clients) are of course for you to pay,
