Our Fees

The firm's fees structure, as for all advocates, is mainly guided by law i.e. the advocates (remuneration) order. Nonetheless, the firm continuously strives to remain flexible.

Fees will be raised on the basis of the following factors:

Time spent and invested on a particular matter
The value of the subject
The complexity of the matter
The urgency of the matter
Logistics

On the other hand, disbursements will and in all cases be charged on the basis of the reasonable prevailing costs for stationary, postal and telephone charges etc. In all cases, Value Added Tax will be raised on legal fees and disbursements as may be required from time to time by the commissioner for V.A.T and this will be subject to the provisions of the V.A.T Act.

The firm will in most cases require that a deposit of fees be paid by clients to defray initial disbursement. Credit for this amount will be given when a final fee note is raised. The deposit is received on the understanding that the client will settle the final fee note promptly. The firm reserves the right to discontinue its services to a client for non-payment of fees and levy interest in accordance with the provisions.
