WHO WE ARE

Meet Charlotte Morson, our principal solicitor

Morson_Charlotte_183-02101_Web-Retouched.jpg

Charlotte is an experienced litigator, moving to the area of legal costs later in her career and bringing a wealth of litigation experience. This experience, combined with her expertise in legal costs enables her to work strategically to obtain the best results for her clients.

We do legal costs.  Costs law, costs consulting, costs assessments, bills of costs, expert reports in the area of legal costs. We love the challenge of turning a chaotic file into a polished and defendable bill of costs.

​

But, we aren't just costs consultants.  We are cost litigators.  We work strategically and with passion and treat every single matter with the importance it deserves.  We are retained by lawyers and directly.

​

We could go into detail about the different processes or avenues that might be available in your matter and how we can assist you, but it's easier and more personalised if you just give us a call.  Your call will be answered by a solicitor who loves talking all things costs.
