Legal Services Cottesloe
My services are outcome driven. This means frank advice based on professional experience. All your case work within my firm is performed by me. I do not delegate my work to other lawyers.
Initial consultations can be by phone, teleconference or in person.
After consulting with you, I will:
- Advise you frankly on the relative merits of your case
- Take you through the risks of proceeding with litigation
- Provide you with an assessment of likely costs
- If I am unable to take your case or believe that you may benefit from alternative advice, then I will refer you to another lawyer or suitably qualified professional, such as an accountant or tax advisor of your choice
This advice is obligation free if you choose not to proceed.
