We maintain a team of administrative assistants and paralegals to facilitate the smooth running of the cases handled by RR&CO.
Paralegal assistants at RR&CO are all personnel who are in the process to qualify as a solicitor. In all cases our Paralegals are graduates, having an English law degree or the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) following graduation in another technical subject.
They are a useful back-room tool for the cost efficient running of the boutique practice and extremely important for the future of the firm.
In English law, a Costs Lawyer is a legal professional concerned with legal costs who has attained rights of audience and rights to conduct costs litigation.
Costs lawyers are concerned with all the aspects of the recoverability of solicitor costs that are controlled by statute and common law. A costs lawyer's skill is as essential to successful litigation as that of a solicitor or barrister. RR&CO exclusively uses the expertise of Deborah Burke of Deborah Burke Costing Ltd. Deborah is a costs lawyer and advocate with a particular interest in commercial and solicitor/client costs.
