Drafting & opposing Bill of costs
Drafting and Opposing Bill of costs
Legal costs are part of civil litigation, and at the end of each order or judgement, one party, losing litigant may be ordered to pay costs. KA Phokwane Inc has been involved and facilitated files for Nozuko Nxusani Inc, between 2016 and 2020 and was responsible to verify drafting and taxation of all files from State Attorney, Johannesburg.
We assist clients who have been ordered to pay legal costs after an unfavourable court outcome. Being the losing party does not mean you must accept excessive or inflated costs without scrutiny. We provide professional support in reviewing and opposing Bills of Costs to ensure that only fair, reasonable, and legally recoverable fees are claimed.
Our attorneys carefully analyse each item in the Bill of Costs, identify overcharges or irregularities, and prepare formal objections where necessary. We represent clients during taxation proceedings and advocate for the reduction of unjustified amounts.
Our goal is to protect you from paying more than what is lawfully due, ensuring transparency, fairness, and proper application of cost principles.
