Should have asked for a free consultation as most will provide that on first visit.

High Street solicitors probably £150-250 per hour (in 10% of an hour/6 minute increments), almost certainly + VAT.

For run of the mill stuff local solicitor said their fees would be £250/hour but the initial talk was free.

 

Subsequently she estimated the  hours needed to produce a deed would be 1.5 to 2. The final bill was £942+VAT . Each time you ask them something it racks up  as does each time they ask you for anything.
