Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
It’s completely normal to have questions before speaking to a lawyer. We want to remove the uncertainty from the process. Below are the answers to the most common questions our clients ask about our practice, our approach, and how we handle your legal matters.
What areas of law do you specialise in?
We focus on the areas that impact your life the most. Our core expertise includes family law (divorce, custody, and maintenance), property conveyancing, debt and consumer law, labour law, and estate law (wills and deceased estates).
Do you offer advice on evictions and land rights?
Yes, we have specialists in housing law who assist both tenants and property owners with threatened evictions, land rights disputes, and issues related to sectional title schemes.
How do I get started with a consultation?
The easiest way to start is by booking a private consultation with one of our specialists. This gives us the opportunity to listen to your unique situation, analyse the details, and provide you with a clear, honest assessment of your legal options.
What is the firm’s approach or tone?
Our approach is approachable professionalism. This means we are experts in the law, but we communicate in plain language. We avoid legalese so that you always understand your options and feel comfortable asking questions.
Can you help me with a contract dispute?
Absolutely. Our civil law department regularly manages contract disputes, personal injury claims (like road accidents), and consumer issues. We will pursue the best possible result in any civil matter you may face.
What are your legal fees or pricing structure?
Legal fees vary significantly based on the complexity, time required, and nature of the legal work. We aim to be transparent about costs from the beginning. During your initial consultation, we will discuss our various options, which may include hourly rates, fixed fees for specific services (like conveyancing), or a pre-agreed quote. We will always provide you with a clear cost estimate before we formally begin any legal work.
