Our fees are made up of an application fee, assessor’s fees and expenses. The application fee is paid on application and normally by the applicant. The remaining fees are paid monthly in advance.

First invoice: You will be invoiced at the start of each month for your share of the likely fees and expenses to be incurred in the coming month. Payment should be made within one week of invoice.

Further invoices: At the end of each month, you will be invoiced for the balance of the fees and expenses incurred in the previous month, and for your share of the next month’s likely fees and expenses.

How fees are shared
The Centre’s fees (other than the application fee) are initially shared equally. This proportion may be adjusted during or at the end of the case, if the assessor believes this is fair or appropriate. The assessor may take into account various factors including the parties’ approach to the case and its handling and sometimes their means.
