## How fees work

Three fee arrangements, explained before anything is booked rather than in a letter afterwards.

### Fixed first meeting — £120 including VAT

Anyone who wants to know whether they have a case before spending properly.

- Thirty minutes with a member
- In person or by video
- A plain answer on whether counsel is needed
- Nothing further owed if you stop there

### Agreed fee — Quoted per piece of work

A defined task — a conference, an opinion, a hearing — priced before it starts.

- Written quote before instruction
- Capped at the quoted figure
- Papers read within the fee
- A clerk you can ring about it

### Conditional — By assessment

Some employment and personal-injury matters, where merits allow it.

- Assessed at the first meeting
- Terms in writing before instruction
- Success percentage stated up front
- Declined plainly where merits do not support it

Ask the assistant to compare two tiers and it will answer from exactly these lines
(`list_plans`), including the prices.
