In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Payment terms are agreed with suppliers as part of contract negotiations. The most commonly used terms are 30 days. Once authorised by the relevant department head, trade invoices are paid when due through weekly payment runs. In line with standard procedures for law firms, payment to suppliers of client matter disbursement costs including counsels fees are made by the firm within 2 working days of the receipt of payment from clients for those costs, unless agreed otherwise with the supplier.
Dispute resolution
The firm's Accounts Payable department should be the first point of contact if a supplier has a dispute relating to payment. Complaints or concerns will be dealt with by the relevant department head, with the involvement of the Finance Director where necessary.

Is this official government data?
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).
