Frequently Asked Questions About Our Commercial Law Services
Do you offer free legal consultations?
We offer a 15-minute obligation-free meeting with you to discuss your legal matter. Depending on the nature of the matter, we may not be able to provide you with clear answers in this meeting, as generally we will need to review documents and consider the issue further. However, depending on your matter we may be able to provide you with some legal information to assist you. We will also let you know how we may be able to assist, and provide you with a cost estimate afterwards.
Do you offer payment plans?
We accept payments via Rapid Pay which is a third-party provider to legal firms. Currently, Rapid Pay also offers payment plans in relation to invoices and requests for funds in trust, though whether this is available to you will depend on who you bank with as some banks are implementing multifactor authorisations which may affect the approval process currently used by Rapid Pay. If you would like more information, please contact us.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes, we accept credit card payments via Rapid Pay.
How do you charge for your commercial law services?
Generally, we charge in 6-minute increments which is the most common method for billing legal services. In this method, we record the amount of time spent on a case, and bill based on the total time spent. The reason for using 6-minute increments is that it allows for more precise billing and helps to account for the smaller amounts of time that may be spent on a case without having to round up or down to the nearest quarter hour or hour. The cost per 6-minute increment is calculated based on the lawyer’s hourly rate.
We will provide you with an estimate of costs based on our understanding of the work required at the commencement of your matter.
We can offer fixed-fee services as well, if you require certainty in respect of your legal costs. We do not generally offer fixed-fee services in litigation cases, though please contact us if you have questions.
How do you keep me informed about the progress of my case?
Lawyers do not and should not take steps in your matter without letting you know and getting your instructions to do so. Generally, how and how often we communicate with you depends on your matter, and how you prefer to be communicated with. We will generally send you email correspondence, however if you prefer to be updated by phone, we can do this as well.
Do you offer virtual consultations?
Yes. For most matters, we can provide you with advice or act for you without meeting you in person. We will still need to conduct a verification of identity process, however we are able to hold meetings with clients by Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, Skype or any similar platform.
Do you work with clients outside of your location?
Generally yes, though it may depend on the nature of the legal issue you require assistance with. We are not able to assist with legal issues outside of Australia, however we may be able to assist you with your legal matter even if you are located in another state.
