Slater Heelis: Charities and Not For Profit

Our Approach

Work Highlights / Examples

Wherever possible, we will carry out our work for a fixed fee or a capped fee which gives you budgetary certainty. We do not work on tariffs but will look at the scope of each piece of work and then work out the fees accordingly, depending upon the complexity of the instruction. Although our work will always be partner-led, we have a well-structured team which allows us to delegate work so that it is carried out at an appropriate level. This means that our support can be provided cost-effectively and efficiently by a cohesive team. We work closely with our clients to develop a trusted adviser relationship. We are available to our clients We are proactive We are commercial We stand up for our clients' interest We give advice and our view on decisions that clients need to make in relation to the transaction We do not sit on fences On each instruction, we provide a fully detailed scope of work that sets out all the work that we envisage undertaking. Our fees would be agreed with you at this point. Our standard hourly rates are as follows: Partner £330 per hour + VAT Associate £275 per hour + VAT Solicitor £180-£260 per hour +VAT Trainee £160 per hour + VAT Executive Assistant £150 per hour + VAT
