Civil Litigation (Personal)
Z.A Law Consultancy understands how stressful and difficult it is to be facing a civil claim no matter how small. We represent claims in both the County Court and the High Court. All cases are vetted before instructions are accepted. We pride ourselves with having a strict policy for all new instructions to be vetted thoroughly before entering into a client solicitor relationship. This approach enables us to be transparent and prevent our clients losing money on cases, which is not likely to succeed.
There are three civil claim tracks, which will determine how costs will be incurred and recovered. These are small track, fast track and multi track.
Legal fees in small track is not recoverable from the losing party. Sometimes you may end up paying just as much in legal fees as the value of the claim against you. We have devised a service, which will assist those who wish to bring or defend their small claims in the County Court for a small fixed fee, subject to conditions. For more information please contact us.
Legal fees in fast track cases may be recovered from the losing party but this is subject to any costs order and/or how the proceedings progress.
Legal fees in multi track cases can be significantly high due to case complexity, therefore realistic case plan and costs budgeting is paramount at the start of the case. Please contact us to discuss further and devise a suitable payment plan.
