We have extensive experience in both recovering costs on behalf of receiving parties and opposing costs on behalf of paying parties. Whether our clients require preparation of a costs budget, bill of costs, points of dispute or pragmatic advice, an experienced legal costs draftsman at Athene Legal can help with every aspect of the costs budgeting process through to the detailed assessment of costs.
We provide a complete costs draftsman service, and deal with the legal costs in a wide range of matters funded under private retainers, conditional fee agreements, damages-based agreements, third party litigation funding and legal aid.
Our team of experts provide bespoke legal aid costs draftsman services where matters are funded under legal help and legal aid.
A legal aid costs draftsman can recover legal costs from the Legal Aid Agency, but if the claim is successful and an inter-partes costs order is made, a legal aid costs draftsman can also recover legal costs from the unsuccessful party. A specialist legal aid costs draftsman will be able to prepare a six-column bill of costs (as opposed to a three-column bill) and ensure that the appropriate costs are claimed from both the LAA and the unsuccessful party.
We are experienced in dealing with the costs in high-profile and substantial litigation. We provide costs draftsman services to many leading practices and ranked lawyers, as recognised by the leading independent legal directories. By choosing Athene Legal, you will be instructing a legal costs draftsman with a wealth of knowledge and experience in costs.
Our clients trust us to deliver our costs draftsman service exercising the exact same care and attention to detail that they demonstrate during the substantive proceedings.
