In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Business supplier standard payments terms are 30 days subject to any variable agreements and the figures provided generally exclude Counsels and Experts suppliers (professional disbursements) who are on variable agreements that mainly cover payment upon receipt.

Dispute resolution

We provide an initial response within 7 days to any disputes or complaints that should be raised through our Accounts Payable team (email - [email protected] ).   Alternatively you can call Hill Dickinson main reception on +44 (0)151 600 8000 and ask for the Accounts Payable team. Any disputes or complaints can be escalated to our relevant Supplier relationship owner, and if necessary to senior management.

Other information

The figures provided are based on our Business suppliers and exclude Professional Disbursement suppliers (Counsels/Experts) that are generally on variable agreed terms (ie payment upon receipt of funds from our Clients to pay our bills) under SRA regulation.  Importantly, our payment process ensures next day payment of Counsel/Expert invoices upon receipt of the related funds from our Clients. The supplied figures do not distinguish between our Hill Dickinson LLP and Hill Dickinson Business Services Company No.7525975 (this company has one customer Hill Dickinson LLP) as they are all recorded and paid centrally. Hence we have provided the same information for both our Hill Dickinson LLP and Business Services Company published reports.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
