About Me

For new non-urgent inquiries - please send an email or ask me at the outset about my fees so we can discuss what you are seeking or what issues you would like to get assistance with.

If your inquiry is simple and only for basic information, to discuss what services I offer, or my rates, or experience, you will not be invoiced.

Otherwise, please ask me about the $150.00 "initial consultation". I offer initial consultations, up to 1-hour, for a fixed fee of $150.00 + GST.

I cannot provide an estimate for your matter until I know what is involved.

When you first contact me, I will aim to discuss with you the work that you need to be done and then provide an estimate depending on the complexity of your matter and the estimated time it will take for that work to be performed.

An estimate will be recorded in a Costs Agreement.

I am more than happy to discuss with you a fixed fee, capped fee, or a payment plan arrangement depending on your circumstances.

I do not. 

However, my rates are flexible. As part of scoping the work to be performed for you, I will discuss with you the issues, the risks, and what can be realistically achieved within your budget and what I can achieve for you with rates that are proportionate to the problem.

Part of the reason why I prefer this approach is that I can focus on genuine litigation, and,  it means I can tailor my services and rates to so that legal services are accessible to those in need.

I am  based in Toowoomba, Queensland. However, I travel and provide legal services across Brisbane, Ipswich, Toowoomba, Dalby, Chinchilla, and Roma. 

No, as I operate a "paperless" practice. I do this so that I can pass on costs savings to you and take a more dynamic approach to meetings and the space of my work. High overheads are a key driver for high legal costs and technology makes many traditional expenses unnecessary to achieve a good outcome.

When we first make contact, I will look to arrange a future meeting or teleconference if appropriate.
