About Us

Committed to Clients. Committed to Costs.

John M Hayes was established in 1985 with the opening of our first office in Amersham. Since then, we have expanded significantly to allow us to meet the increase in demand for our legal costs services.

We operate from 11 locations throughout the UK allowing us to service a large number of law firms and in-house legal teams. This geographical spread makes us unique. We have a presence in all court centres and are able to utilise this local knowledge to our clients’ advantage.

Our 100-strong team of Costs Lawyers and Costs Draftsmen deliver an unrivalled service combining experience, expertise and a passion for costs which means we get the very best results.

With over 25 years in business, John Hayes remains at the heart of the company as Managing Director.  He continues to ensure that our Costs Draftsmen are trained in-house to the very highest standard.

It is our commitment to quality and clients which we believe sets us apart from our competitors.
