Pricing
Pricing options
To support clients with ongoing or more complex cases, I offer bundle prices that combine several services at a reduced rate, tailored to your needs. That keeps costs manageable, while making sure you get thorough, high-quality support throughout your case.
Costs vary depending on the level of support you need. We discuss pricing once I understand your situation and the steps involved.

How payment works
Simple and flexible
You pay by bank transfer, choosing how many hours to put on account. Smaller tasks between sessions, like checking a reply to your ex’s solicitor, are taken from your balance by the time they take, so you only pay for what you use.
Using a McKenzie Friend instead of a solicitor and barrister for most of your case can save you a great deal of money.
Professional boundaries
To keep everything clear and safe for you
- I am not a solicitor and cannot give legal advice.
- I cannot speak on your behalf in court unless a judge gives permission.
- My role is to support you, guide you and help you feel prepared and confident.
