HS LAW SOLICITORS & NOTARIES

Notary Fees

1. Fees: My presently hourly rate is £250, and my minimum fee is £50 - £60. I reserve the right to vary these rates in respect of extremely urgent work or work done outside ordinary office hours or at the weekend. The majority of the matters I work on a fix fee basis which I provide before I carried out any work.

  2.  Value Added Tax (VAT): My practice is registered for VAT. VAT is a UK Government Tax which is presently charged at 20% over my         fees.

  3. Payment: My charges are normally payable on presentation (usually at the meeting) by cash, card payments – Debit/ Credit or by          immediate BACS transfer. Notarised documents will not normally be released until all fees and disbursements have been paid in            full.

  4. Disbursements: You are responsible for all payments which I make on your behalf. Typical examples are legalisation fees paid to            the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and/or an Embassy, legalisation agents’ fees, Companies Registry fees,                courier fees and special delivery postage charges. However, I shall not incur these expenses without first obtaining your consent to        do so.
