The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 38 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): per service (share valuation, buy-out agreement, dispute review, partnership exit) the published fees across UK firms (lowest fixed fee, median of published starting fees) and the share of firms that publish against those that quote per matter; the calculator adds the median adviser cost to the buyout price and tax",
