Range of Fees & Direct Access

Peter Mason ‘s price model for direct access clients can be a fixed fee, hourly rate, conditional fee agreement (“CFA”) or damages based agreement (“DBA”).

Indicative fees are as follow:

  • A fixed fee may be possible for a straightforward matter.
  • Hourly rates are in the range of £130 to £250 /hour, depending on the nature of the matter,  including the amount of work involved, complexity and client circumstances. 
  • Any percentage fee payable under a CFA or DBA may be subject to a statutory cap- for employment matters that is 35% of any amounts received, including VAT.
  • VAT if due, is chargeable in addition Additional costs may be payable including travel and overnight accommodation.

The overall cost of a case will depend on how straightforward or complex a matter is, the need for additional documents, and the approach taken by the other side. 

More details can be provided on request.
