Disbursements are sums paid by your lawyer to third parties, such as court fees, expert assessments and barrister fees. Double check when getting a quote what disbursements apply and query any disbursements that haven’t been mentioned by other firms if you’ve shopped around.
Make sure that any quotes you get contain all costs, disbursements and VAT. Beware of quotes that look a lot cheaper than others – as the saying goes, if it looks too
good to be true, it probably is.
A lot of firms will not issue you with a quote but will instead provide you with an estimate of the amount of work and their costs. This may make firms difficult to
compare. The estimate should provide a reasonable idea of the final bill, however this can sometimes be hard to predict. Therefore, it is important that your lawyer keeps you updated throughout.
