Office Hours
Kelly has offices in Levin and Palmerston North. Appointments are by prior arrangement only.
Fees & Disbursements
Kelly endeavours to keep all fees at a modest level. If you require time to pay, it is most important that you advise this at the earliest opportunity. An invoice will be sent at the conclusion of my engagement; payment on all invoices is due within seven (7) days from date of invoice (unless prior arrangement has been made). Invoices are based on activity, time spent and disbursements (i.e. hourly rate, email/cellphone costs, administration, travel costs etc). As the work progresses, interim accounts may be sent.
Hourly Rate
Kelly offers fee arrangements to suit your individual financial circumstances. This includes fixed fees and payment plans. As a general guideline you could pay fees between $100.00 -$275.00 +GST per hour depending on your circumstances.
Overdue Accounts
If you have not made arrangements to pay by automatic instalments, payment of invoices is due within seven days of the invoice being issued. If you have an overdue invoice, a monthly account handling fee and interest may be charged. For each month a statement is produced, an account fee of $25.00 + GST will be added, along with interest at 2.5% on the overdue balance. In the event the matter is referred to a Debt Collection Agency, any costs incurred will be the client’s sole responsibility.
