  1. Our Responsibility

It is our responsibility to review any of the documents that you share with us within the framework agreed. We will advise you as to the merits and risks presented by the contents of those documents and confirm our advice in writing. Any assumptions or limitations will be clearly spelt out. If you ask us to do so, we will discuss the relevant documents with designated third parties on your behalf. We will keep all information relating to your business and affairs confidential unless we are obliged to disclose it by a government body. This might happen, for example, if money laundering is suspected.

 

  1. Fees

Our fees are charged either on a fixed fee or on an installment basis, which we will agree with you before work starts. All prices are subject to VAT at the current rate.

If we agree on a fixed fee with you then the following will apply:-

  • You will agree to any specific terms set out to you relating to the work.
  • You will provide any information we need from you in a prompt, timely and comprehensive manner.
  • We will ask for 50% of the fixed fee in advance as a down payment before the work begins and then invoice you a for the remaining balance on completion of the work unless we agree otherwise.
  • Invoices will be issued at the beginning and at the end of the work and payment will be due within 4 days from the date of the invoice.
  • We reserve the right to charge extra, if we have to change documents more than two weeks after delivery to you or if you significantly change your instructions.

If we agree on an installment basis with you then the following will apply:-

  • You will agree to any specific terms set out to you relating to the work.
  • You will provide any information we need from you in a prompt, timely and comprehensive manner.
  • Installments will be based in weeks or months. This will be agreed upon before the work starts.
  • Fees will be calculated according to the division of the weekly or monthly installments.
  • Invoices will be issued weekly or monthly and payment will be due within 4 days from the date of the invoice.
  • Each invoice will be accompanied with a brief of the work done.

Further work will not be undertaken if any fee remains outstanding beyond the 4 day period or such other settlement period that we agree on. We also reserve the right to terminate the engagement and cease acting if the account is unduly delayed in settlement. It is not our intention, however, to use these rights in a way which is unfair or unreasonable.

 

  1. Reliance on Information Posted

Commentary and other materials posted on our Site are not intended to amount to advice on which reliance should be placed. We therefore disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by any visitor to our site, or by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents.

 

  1. Site Changes

We aim to update our site regularly and may change the content at any given time. If there is a need, we may suspend access to our Site, or close it down indefinitely. Any of the given material on our Site may be out of date and we are under no obligation to update such material.

 

  1. Communicating with You

We are most likely to communicate with you through e-mail or any other way that has been agreed upon. As with other means of delivery, this carries with it the risk of inadvertent misdirection or non-delivery. You must carry out a virus check on attachments received electronically.

Internet communications are capable of data corruption. It may therefore be inappropriate to rely on advice contained in an e-mail without obtaining written confirmation of it. We do not accept responsibility for any errors or problems that may arise through the use of internet communication and all risks connected with sending commercially sensitive information relating to you are borne by you. If you do not accept this risk, you should notify us in writing that e-mail is not an acceptable means of communication.

If requested, we may introduce you to other professional consultants. In that event, the advice given to you by those consultants will be without any responsibility on our part and you will be responsible directly to them for the payment of all fees and expenses.

 

  1. Agreement of Terms

When you first instruct us we will issue a “Letter of Engagement” which will go on to set out the agreed fees with the method of Fees charged (fixed Fee or Installment basis) and the matters to be advised on or the work to be carried out. It is your duty to sign and return this letter to us along with the payment as listed in the letter. We will start to carry out the work once the letter is signed and received by us. Either party may terminate the Letter of Engagement at any time before signing it without penalty by letting the other party know in writing.
