Why the client needed our help
Having first tried, unsuccessfully, to recover some unpaid solicitors fees’ themselves, our law firm client came to us for help.
How we helped
Initially, we sent a letter before action requesting payment. When payment was not received, we issued county court proceedings. We then made a Part 36 legal costs offer on behalf of our client.
The outcome
The trial was a success with our client being awarded the full amount claimed along with all interest. In addition, we beat the Part 36 offer which meant that they were entitled to an extra 10% on damages. A great result.
We used Francis Wilks & Jones to recover outstanding invoices. Andy and Hardeep worked quickly to get all the legal documents sent out. We recovered all the outstanding invoices and the legal costs, this essentially put us at net-zero in terms of costs which was great. They were also able to recover late payment interest and late payment compensation for us as well.
