Fees and Commissions for Public Sector Organisations
No success, no fee. We are proud to support a range of clients, including local authorities, care providers, and other third-party organisations.
In most cases, our fees are contingency-based, meaning that no fees are payable unless we are successful in our work. Even then, our fees are typically deducted directly from the estate’s recovered assets. This ensures there is usually no cost to the referring organisation.
For assignments where a contingency-based approach is not appropriate — such as ad hoc research reports or family tree validations — we operate on a ‘time and materials’ basis. This model ensures transparency and flexibility while maintaining our commitment to delivering a highly competitive and tailored package designed to suit the needs of each individual case and organisation.
