Their experience in the sector means they achieve outstanding results through a sympathetic, subtle and quality driven process.

• A senior management led team with a proven track record on recovering Barristers' fees

• Bespoke recovery software programmes and processes

• Correspondence and processes tailored to client needs, dovetailing with the clerks or credit control team, following consultation with the Barrister (at no charge to you)

• Individual reporting processes allowing the client to retain control of the recoveries procedure, with up-to- date case information, when and how the client prefers this (at no charge to you)

• Highly competitive fixed fee charges for undisputed/undefended cases, and

• A discounted hourly rate and fee transparency for any defended/disputed cases.

Do you pay the Bar Representation Fee (BRF)?

In addition to non-disputed debt recovery on the basis of their standard fee structure, Thrings LLP are offering the following additional services to those who pay the BRF:

• Free initial consultation: discussion with the barrister or clerk over the case in question, strategy discussion, invoice and position review with preliminary advice at no charge, and

• Discounted letters before action: where the letter before action results in full payment our charge will be the £40 as standard, however this will be reduced to £25 if payment is not made and we are instructed to issue proceedings to take the recovery further.
