initial consultation
The initial (FREE 20 minute telephone consultation) is vital in obtaining information from you about your matter and in determining whether you need to proceed with a legal matter or take any action at all.
Should you require an in person consultation with a Solicitor or require a longer telephone consulation, we offer a reduced hourly rate of $99 + GST per hour.
fixed fees
Where possible we offer fixed fee arrangements to create certainty. This means that our clients know exactly what they are paying for and what they will receive, without any nasty surprises.
Our fixed fee service generally applies when we can clearly identify the work required. For example our fixed fee service may be suitable for tasks such as the preparation of a contract or estate planning matters such as the preperation of a will or enduring power of attorney.

Where a fixed fee cannot easily be identified due to the nature, duration or complexity of a matter (for example drawn out litigation we generally charge a time-based fee in reference to the amount of time our Solicitor(s) spend attending to the matter.
