In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The business enters into two types of contracts: • Contracts on behalf of the firm which includes all costs relating to the running of the business; and • Contracts on behalf of the client, where the costs are then recharged to the client as disbursements. In relation to the firm's costs, the business' standard payment terms are 30 days from the invoice date. If an invoice is disputed, the head of the Business Group will take steps to resolve the issue before the invoice is authorised for payment. If contracts are disputed then the standard terms are likely to be exceeded. Disbursements are usually paid once the money is received from the client. Where the contract relates to a conditional fee agreement matter then enhanced terms will have been agreed with the supplier and the pay
Dispute resolution
Initial queries are dealt with by the purchase ledger department. This department will liaise with the invoice approver to ascertain any extenuating circumstances. Failing this any disputes will be raised with our Finance Director.

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).
