Services 

The directors, Malcolm Goodwin and Domenico Malatesta, are 
qualified costs lawyers who for many years have assisted and 
advised many clients setting legal cost budgets; monitoring and 
auditing legal spend and assessing legal costs in civil litigation.  
This knowledge and expertise lets us help you to manage your 
legal spend saving you money and time.  We can do this in a 
number of ways:
 
•	Preparing legal cost budgets for projects and civil 
	litigation and ensuring that legal spend remains 
	within that budget;
 
•	Assessing and reporting on your lawyers’ fees;
 
•	Audit lawyers' invoices and reporting to you any 
	issues regarding the fees charged and any reductions
	that should be made;
 
•	Recovering or opposing legal costs in civil litigation and 
	reducing cost;
 
This professional service can only be provided by building a team 
with you, our legal costs experts and your legal service providers, 
all working together to achieve your objectives at the right cost.  
The use of information technology is vital part of this service but 
does not replace the professional assistance that only an 
experienced costs lawyer can provided.
