Legal Fees and Professional Paralegals
The average rate of a solicitor in north Wales ranges from £142.00 to £300.00 per hour plus VAT. The lower rate normally is charged by paralegals and Junior/Trainee Solicitors and the higher rates by fully qualified and time served Solicitors.
With the restrictions on Legal Aid now, so many people don't have access to justice and very often feel overwhelmed by all the paperwork and processes that are involved in legal matters.
A professional Mackenzie friend like ourselves hold a relevant Law degree the same way in which many Solicitors start their legal career. The only difference is we have not chosen to follow any regulatory exams.
Our experience extends across many areas and can be very effective for litigants in person. Plus we can guide you to Barristers on the direct access scheme should we feel it's necessary - we are able to draft the instructions for you, put your case in the correct format so that you can send to a barrister at a fraction of the cost. Many Solicitors will want £750 plus VAT as a minimum to prepare papers for Barristers.
