A series of questions will follow which will enable the chatbot to compile a breakdown of the legal costs.
Once you have answered all of the questions, this pop-up will show the breakdown of legal fees. A copy will also be emailed to you.
The bottom of the pop-up will display the answers to the questions posed by the chatbot.
