Payment by Results
Much of our income comes from success-related fees, which we only receive when we complete assignments.
Where we are asked to advise in relation to a specific transaction, e.g. a business disposal or the raising of venture capital, our fee is usually structured in two parts:
- Assignment retainer – a modest upfront fee that is not conditional on success but demonstrates the client’s joint commitment with us to proceed with the project.
- Completion fee – only payable when we achieve a successful outcome. Usually, the fee is calculated as a percentage of the price obtained or the funds raised.
Non-transactional work is billed hourly or on a fixed fee/retainer basis, tailored to each client. No fees apply until we assess your needs and provide an initial view. Preliminary meetings are free with no obligation. Fees begin only after agreeing on a detailed brief and signing a formal agreement. We succeed by partnering with our clients to create value together.
