A Guide to the Initial Consultation 

You are one step closer to achieving your success. 

We are all about getting the absolute best results for our clients. In the initial consultation, we will work with you to identify all of your legal options and develop a strategy to achieve your goals.

What to expect from us during the consultation?

Our goal is to ensure you leave the consultation with clear insights and a concrete plan. To achieve this goal, we will: 

  • Identify your main legal issue(s); 
  • Answer all your questions;
  • Understand the nature of the document(s) (if you provide any) to learn about your situation and may make reference to them during the meeting. 
  • Provide a fixed-fee quotation for the legal steps necessary to achieving your aims.
How should I get ready for my consultation?
  • Teleconference: Our lawyer will call you at the scheduled time. Please ensure your phone is ready.
  • Video Conference: We will send you a Teams link. Simply click the link at the appointed time.
  • In-Person Meeting: Arrive at our office at the scheduled time. Our address is Level 14 303 Collins Street Melbourne VIC 3000.
How can I get the most out of my consultation?

We understand that talking to a lawyer can be daunting, but rest assured, we are here to support you every step of the way.

  • Be Honest: Please be open and honest about your legal needs so that we can provide the best advice possible. Rest assured, we take your privacy seriously. All information shared during the consultation is confidential and will not be disclosed to third parties without your consent.
  • No Need to Repeat Your Story: Our lawyer has already reviewed the notes our team collected from you, allowing us to focus on addressing your questions and concerns efficiently.
  • Have a Notepad Ready: Be prepared to jot down key points and advice during the meeting to maximise the value of our time together.

What if I have questions after the consultation?

Our goal is to ensure you receive full value for the time you booked and have all your legal concerns addressed. If our lawyer has thoroughly answered all your questions and you feel satisfied with the consultation, the meeting may conclude early.

Rest assured, we are committed to providing you with support after your consultation. Although any remaining time cannot be redeemed, we are always available to follow up with you if you have further enquiries. Please feel free to reach out to us for any further assistance.

Can I get a refund if I am not satisfied?
