What are legal costs: Legal costs are those costs which a court orders in order to reimburse the successful party for the litigation expenses. These costs are ordered on three scales, the first being party and party, the next attorney and client and the last being punitive cost orders. It is our function to quantify the legal costs and present submissions on taxation as to the reasonableness and fairness of the items before the taxing master.

ATTORNEY AND “OWN” CLIENT COSTS
Please note that there is no such thing as attorney and “own” client costs. Attorney and Client costs and attorney and “own” client costs are one and the same thing.
Should a party wish to obtain attorney and “own” client costs from the other side, they should specifically note the words:
“Defendant shall pay Plaintiff’s Attorney and Client costs at the rate of R…… per hour” or “Defendant shall pay Plaintiff’s Attorney and Client costs as per the agreement between the attorney and his/her client” or “Defendant shall pay Plaintiff’s Attorney and Client costs as per the mandate between the attorney and his/her client”.
Attorney and Client costs payable by the attorney’s own client follows the signed mandate or fee agreement. If no mandate or fee agreement exists, the Court tariffs shall apply.

Preparing Bills

Practice over a year has developed collegially between Practitioners to use the services of legal cost consultants to deal with this function.

In order for the legal practitioner to be able to present a bill of cost for taxation purposes, both a Party and Party bill and Attorney and Client bill are completed to adhere to the requirements of the Rules, whether it be High Court or Lower Court.

The Informal bill is aimed more at enabling the attorney to present his client with an accurate yet compact account for work done, but the Informal bill is also very useful for determining Cost for Security or even when settlement negotiations are ongoing where legal costs are also an issue.
Attending Taxation

Although the task of attending taxation is reserved for legal practitioners with the Right of Appearance, practice over the last three decades or more has developed collegially between practitioners to use the services of legal cost consultants to deal with this function.

With the laws pertaining to taxation being tremendously complicated, most attorneys prefer to contract experts to assist them and often employ the services of legal cost practitioners to handle the tedious and time consuming task of preparing for and attending taxation.

Although practices differ countrywide in the various divisions as to the privilege of appearance by legal cost practitioners, we will gladly assist and attend taxations on behalf of the attorney where possible.

For the alternative Bills of Cost has built up a fantastic relationship with their business partners who have the Right of Appearance to look after our Client’s’ needs in this regard at the highest professional level.
Opposing Bills

It is a reality that not all cases are won and in such instances the unsuccessful party will most likely be faced with a legal bill of cost aimed at indemnifying the successful party for costs incurred in litigation.

Of course the unsuccessful party has the right to scrutinise and object to any charge appearing in such a bill of cost. As opposing a bill of cost can be even more complicated in law than presenting a bill of cost, the services we provide in this regard is just as valuable to the unsuccessful party for the attainment of justice.
