| PLLG Limited requires the client to recognise that reasonable,
proportionate and timely payment for our services should
not be an unmentionable subject.
Our aim is to make our fee structure understandable
and transparent from the outset, thereby avoiding difficulties
or misunderstanding in the future. In doing so it is
important that the clients understand the nature and
parameters of the services we envisage and provide in
relation to each piece of work.
Every client and every matter is different. PLLG demonstrates
flexibility in aiming to accommodate each relevant circumstance.
There are the following alternatives which can either
be independent or used in combination.
- Time Charge –
fees charged by reference to time spent. Payable on
a monthly ongoing basis.
- Retainer – a
fixed fee payable monthly guaranteeing a dedicated
service, response, advice and support legal service.
Fee relates to level of activity required and is reviewed
at 3 month intervals. This provides a virtually seamless
link between client and lawyer and gives a favourable
discount to the time charge basis (see below).
- Case by case –
fixed fees for specific defined work agreed in advance.
- Contingent –
where some or most of the fees are end loaded to a
particular result or conclusion. In such case a commitment
fee is always required at the outset to demonstrate
the seriousness and intent of the client.
Note - Expenses –
unless otherwise specifically agreed, expenses paid
out by us on a client's behalf in the performance of
the services are to be reimbursed either in advance
of payment or on presentation of our invoice in respect
of such expenses.
