Scope of Employment Tribunal Work and Associated Costs

For a simple matter, our costs could be in the range of £50,000 – £150,000 plus VAT. For more complex cases, our costs could start from £500,000 or more plus VAT. These costs will include disbursements, the bulk of which would be fees paid to counsel and, if appropriate, experts. Counsel’s fees are estimated between £3,000 to £20,000 plus VAT per day, depending on the seniority of counsel. There may also be a “brief fee” charged by counsel in advance of a hearing, which can range from £50,000 plus VAT for a simple hearing to £500,000 plus VAT or more for more complex and/or lengthy hearings.
