If you’re representing yourself in family court, the good news is that after paying the C100 application fee, there’s often nothing more to pay! Unless additional costs arise—such as drug or alcohol testing (which must be necessary and proportionate) or a psychological assessment (rarely ordered)—you can move forward without the hefty expenses.
Here’s what you need to consider:
- C100 Application Fee: This is the initial cost for filing your case.
- No Additional Court Fees: If you’re self-representing, there are typically no further charges unless the court specifically orders additional tests or assessments.
However, hiring a solicitor to handle your case can cost an average of £20,000 or more! This can be overwhelming, especially if your case is straightforward.
What’s the alternative?
If you need help navigating the legal process, using a registered paralegal or a McKenzie Friend can be a far more affordable and quicker option. I can assist with:
- Preparing documents and statements
- Offering guidance and emotional support
- Accompanying you to court and sitting by your side
You’ll still be in control of your case but with professional support at a fraction of the cost.
