Our Fees and Payment Options

Fees rendered by our firm are based on time engaged by our partners and staff. Our charge-out rates reflect the skill and experience of the person engaged in the work. In fixing a fee we also take into account the specialized knowledge and responsibility required, the importance of the matter to you and the result achieved and the urgency and circumstances in which the business is transacted.

We calculate and invoice our fees on a monthly basis.  This means that you may receive an interim invoice.  This will represent the work completed by us to the date indicated on that invoice.   Your invoice will include disbursements where applicable. Disbursements are payments made by us on your behalf and these costs are passed onto you as part of our normal monthly billing.

Your invoice will be sent to you by the 10th of the month following the fee date. Payment is required by the 20th of the month following invoice.

Payment Options

There are a number of ways in which you can pay your invoice.   These are detailed below.  It is also possible to pay an agreed monthly fee.  This option enables you to spread the cost of your accounting fees over the year.  If you are interested in this option please speak to your Accountant or Heidi Morgans, our Practice Manager.
