Your Trusted Family Lawyers in Melbourne

Step 1: Book a Free Chat with a Family Lawyer

  • This is a 15 minute telephone call which will not provide you with any legal advice.
  • The purpose of this call is to see if we are a good fit for you.
  • If you wish to proceed, you will then be booked in for a Initial Strategy and Advice Meeting (Step 2)

For a one-time fee of $660, you’ll receive:

  • A 60 minute Initial Strategy and Advice Meeting
  • A comprehensive written Letter of Advice outlining different pathway options.
  • A detailed discussion with one of our lawyers, either in-person or via video conference (Teams), where you can share your circumstances.
  • An overview of your options and the services we offer, including approximate costs and timeframes for each.

Post-Strategy & Advice Conference: Fee Options

After the Strategy & Advice Conference, if you require our ongoing assistance, we’ll send you a fee proposal for the agreed work.

We offer three fee options based on the nature of the work:

  1. Fixed Fee
    For clear and well-defined work, we offer a fixed fee to cover all anticipated tasks.
  2. Hourly Rates
    For work with uncertain scope, we charge based on hourly rates.
  3. Hybrid Fee
    A mix of fixed and hourly rates. This is suitable when some tasks are well-defined, but others are uncertain.
  4. Charging in Stages
    For complex cases, we often charge in stages. We provide a quote for the first stage and a preliminary estimate of the overall cost. After completing each stage, we’ll send you a proposal for the next stage.
