Expert Legal Costs Services from DeNovo:
Your Trusted UK Costs Lawyers

Our Expertise: Tailored Legal Costs Solutions for Solicitors


At DeNovo Legal Services, we understand the diverse needs of solicitors involved in various branches of litigation.


Our clients range from those engaged in high-stakes commercial litigation to specialists managing personal injury and catastrophic medical cases.


Each client segment benefits from our tailored approach to legal costs management.


For High-End Commercial Litigation:


Our clients in commercial litigation demand nothing less than the highest quality service. We are proud to offer a team with a distinguished commercial costs pedigree.


Our expertise is not just our claim—it's a guarantee.


Unlike the broader industry where standards may vary, we ensure excellence and competence in every aspect of our service. This commitment positions us as a preferred partner for top-tier solicitors seeking reliable and expert handling of their legal costs.


For Personal Injury and Catastrophic Claims:

Solicitors handling personal injury and catastrophic claims require a partner who can manage high volumes of cases efficiently and systematically.


At DeNovo, we excel in delivering high-quality services even at larger scales.


Our systematic approach ensures timely, cost-effective management of legal costs, making us an ideal choice for specialists who value capacity as much as quality.


Choose DeNovo: Where Quality Meets Capacity


Whether you're dealing with complex commercial disputes or high-volume injury claims, DeNovo Legal Services offers the expertise and the capacity to manage your legal costs effectively.


Trust us to uphold the highest standards of service, tailored to the specific needs of your practice.

At DeNovo Legal Services, we take pride in being one of the UK's premier legal costs consultancies, backed by a team of highly skilled costs lawyers and consultants.


Our team specializes in all facets of legal costs management, from solicitor-client disputes to complex commercial and personal injury costs disputes.


Our Comprehensive Legal Costs Services Include:


  • Preparation of Bills of Costs and Cost Breakdowns: Including Costs Precedent S.
  • Points of Dispute/Reply and Costs Negotiation: We handle your costs claims with precision.
  • Advocacy and Hearings: Expert representation at detailed assessments and budgeting hearings.
  • Costs Budgeting and Monitoring: From drafting Costs Budgets (Form Precedent H) to advising on reducing legal costs outlay.


Why Choose a Costs Lawyer?


Costs lawyers are specialised legal professionals who manage the intricacies of legal costs.


With rights of audience in all related matters, our costs lawyers are accredited by the Association of Costs Lawyers and regulated by the Costs Lawyer Standards Board, ensuring top-tier service and advocacy.

Difference Between Costs Lawyers and Costs Draftsmen:


While both roles are crucial, costs lawyers hold qualifications from the Association of Costs Lawyers and enjoy full rights of audience, setting them apart from costs draftsmen who may have different qualifications.


At DeNovo, whether you interact with our costs lawyers or our esteemed costs draftsmen, you receive expert service tailored to your needs.


Why DeNovo Stands Out:


We reject the 'one size fits all' approach.


Our costs lawyers and consultants are dedicated legal professionals, many of whom hold advanced degrees and bring over 20 years of trusted service to our clients.


At DeNovo, we ensure that your case is managed by the most suited, skilled, and experienced costs experts.
