We understand the financial pressures of providing a Legal Aid service to lay clients. We always aim to maximise costs and provide advice when needed.
We understand that high costs cases can be time consuming and difficult to navigate. We will guide you through the process. We can provide costs comparisons for VHCCs and help you to decide the best route to take. We will provide reminders when anew stage to the plan is due. We will liaise with chambers to obtain estimates and fee notes. We will deal with the hassle so that solicitors can get back to spending their time fee earning. We will negotiate with the LAA to get you a fair high cost case contract.
We can provide paperless billing and have a broad range of experience of case management systems from which we extract the relevant information. We can provide submission of bills via CCMS.
Our experience means we can offer guidance when needed and improve processes where required. Coralie particularly enjoys setting up policies, procedures and processes whilst being sensitive and understanding to the needs of the client's business and staff.
