We accept these methods for payments of invoices, payments on account of our fees and disbursements and for property matters – deposits, balances required for completion and stamp duty land tax. Please note that 7 working days clearance is required.
Telegraphic Transfers/CHAPS
This method is acceptable for the same purposes as cheques and bank drafts. Please call the fee earner dealing with your matter to obtain our client account details.
Internet transfers
This method is acceptable for the same purposes as cheques and bank drafts. Please call the fee earner dealing with your matter to obtain our client account details. Please note that some electronic transfers may take up to 3 working days. Most banks limit the amount that can be sent be faster payment each day.
IMPORTANT NOTE – before sending funds to us by telegraphic transfer/CHAPS or by internet transfer, you must verify our Client Account details by speaking to the fee earner dealing with your matter.
