Corporate and complex instructions will be charged based on the intricacy and urgency of the work. A 20% surcharge applies for out-of-hours appointments (subject to availability), and a mobile service is offered in the surrounding areas, including Ascot, Virginia Water, Staines, Guildford, Woking, Bracknell, and Slough, with an additional charge of £5 per mile calculated from the office location. VAT does not apply to Michal's fees. Payment is required in advance.
