Businesses prefer fixed fees to hourly billing. This way, clients are encouraged to use the law more proactively, thereby saving time and money.
Deborah Evans, Chief Executive of the Legal Complaints Service recently offered this opinion on the subject:-
“Charging by the hour….provides no certainty for the client as there is often no indication of likely total expenditure and no real way of making comparisons between firms. A fixed fee delivers absolute certainty.” (Source: ‘The Lawyer’, Monday 5th February 2007)
In stark contrast to traditional law firms, Gardner Consulting’s use of fixed fees is its unique selling point. It takes a wealth of experience, plus much confidence, to measure how long a particular piece of work is going to take and therefore to set a price from the outset.
