We realise that it is important to you to be able to budget for the costs involved in challenging the admission decision. Consequently we offer fixed fees for admission appeals, and have set out the ranges below. The final charge depends on the seniority of the person handling the case and will be discussed with you before we start work.
These charges do not apply to cases involving special needs or disability discrimination.
Assessing your papers and a telephone discussion: £100.
Assessing your papers and providing written advice on the arguments which should
be raised and possible chances of success: £250
(£100 will be refunded if we later draft your appeal documents)
Drafting appeal documents to set out all the important points: £475 - £750
Telephone support throughout: £200 - £275.
Representation at one hearing within 1.5 hours travel time, provided we have also
advised on the papers: £275 - £600
(Travel costs will be charged at £60 per hour)
We can provide representation further afield, and will provide an estimate for this on request.
VAT at the standard rate will be added to all bills.
