How we may assist
- Review of a decision, order or reasons document
- Issue spotting and preparation of a practical review or appeal action plan
- Drafting assistance for grounds, representations or review requests for your own filing where lawful
- Chronology, evidence and supporting-document organisation
- Preparation notes for internal, administrative, tribunal or court-related review processes
- Early identification of limitation dates, permission requirements and the need for authorised representation
When this service may be useful
- You have received an adverse decision and need to understand whether a review or appeal route exists.
- A short deadline applies and you need the relevant documents and issues organised quickly.
- You are representing yourself and want drafting help without transferring conduct of the proceedings.
- You need to decide whether specialist appellate or public-law representation should be instructed.
What you can expect
We focus on the specific legal task you want completed. We review the available information, identify any important date, clarify the outcome you are seeking and then confirm the proposed work before substantive time is incurred.
- Decision review and action plan
- Draft grounds or representations for your own use where appropriate
- Chronology and evidence schedule
- Referral recommendation where authorised litigation or advocacy is required
How it works
- Send the essentials: a concise summary, the key document and any deadline.
- Suitability check: we assess whether the requested task falls within our lawful and professional scope.
- Scope and price: we confirm what is included, important exclusions, who will undertake or supervise the work and the fee or charging basis.
- Advice or drafting: we complete the agreed work and explain the practical next step.
- Referral where required: if reserved, separately regulated or specialist work is needed, we explain that clearly rather than extending the service beyond its proper scope.
Guide fees for this service
These guide prices apply to clearly defined work of ordinary complexity. Before substantive work begins, we confirm the task, the person providing or supervising it and the price or charging basis in writing. Your written quote will confirm the VAT treatment and the total price payable before substantive work begins. Please complete the VAT setting in Appearance → Customise for a definitive public statement.
| Decision / order review and action plan | £250–£450 |
| Draft review or appeal representations | £300–£550 |
| Chronology and evidence schedule | £200–£400 |

Urgency, unusually large document volumes, additional conferences or work outside the agreed scope may require a revised quote. We will normally agree that with you before carrying out the additional work.
Scope and regulatory limits
Phrasing Legal does not conduct litigation, file or serve documents as your legal representative, go on the court record or exercise rights of audience. Some appeal and review procedures have very short time limits and specialist jurisdictional rules. We will identify when an authorised litigation, advocacy or public-law specialist should be instructed.
Whether an activity is reserved or separately regulated depends on the substance of the work, not merely the name used for the service. We therefore assess the requested task before accepting instructions.
