Funding

As an essential element of its service Law will advise you on the options available to you for funding your case.

Private Clients

At your first meeting you will be told how we calculate our charges. Whenever possible we will give you a detailed breakdown of the estimated total costs, whether these are our own fees or for an external resource such as a barrister or expert. As with all solicitors, Blavo and Co requires your authority to make these payments, known as disbursements, to other people on your behalf.

In litigation matters you may be able to recover your costs from the opposing party if you win your case.

Public Funding

At Blavo and Co we undertake work funded by the Legal Services Commission (LSC). Public funding (formerly known as legal aid) is a system of government funding, administered by the LSC, for those who cannot afford to pay for legal advice and representation. Franchises are granted by the LSC for practising in specific areas of law and are an endorsement of our quality system, client commitment and legal skills in those areas.

Legal Expenses Insurance

Many household and motor insurance policies include cover for legal costs. It may be worth checking the policy wording of your existing insurances before your first appointment to find out if this is an option in your case.

Please contact us so that we can assess what funding may be available to you.
