Our Charges

We  appreciate how concerned all clients are about meeting the costs of legal services.  At Clarkson Hirst we discuss these issues with you frankly and openly and explain to you the various ways in which you can meet our charges.

If your case is one where a no win no fee agreement would be appropriate we will discuss and fully explain this with you at the outset to enable your to decide what best suits you - for further information please visit our Personal Injury page.
