Please be informed also that there may be other costs involved to third parties, such as expert fees.  Our costs above are exclusive of these further disbursements. We will consult you on these and agree with you in advance before the fees are incurred.

Timescales

The time it takes to conclude your matter would depend on whether you are pleading guilty to the offence or the matter is proceeding to trial and also the court listings. The Courts are busy now and so your case may run between two months to four months or longer.
