What happens during a free legal consultation?

What to expect during a free legal consultation.

For many people, seeking legal advice is a big step. The law and its intricacies can appear to be a daunting prospect. Fortunately, your experience of the law does not need to be this way. The Family Lawyer is passionate about making the law accessible through providing a friendly, compassionate and uncomplicated service.

The first step in dealing with a legal issue is to seek a FREE CONSULTATION. In this article, we will outline what happens during a free legal consultation.

Our guide to a free consultation

Your free consultation can be conducted over the phone or in person, depending on your needs. Our free consultations take up to 15 minutes. If you wish to instruct us after this consultation, we will ask you to sign a cost agreement and discuss the next steps with you.

During a free legal consultation, you can expect us to:

Discuss your legal issue

We will take the time to listen to you and find out about the legal issue you are facing. At this stage, we may also ask you some questions so that we can ascertain the best course of action. If you have any questions, you will have the opportunity to ask them. 

Outline the options

Once we have discussed your legal issue with you and answered your initial questions, we will outline the options available to you to resolve it. By exploring the options and next steps, we aim to bring a sense of clarity so that you can make an informed decision about how you would like to proceed.

Provide an estimate of the costs and likely timescale for resolving your legal issue

We recognise that clients wish to find out about the costs and timescale of resolving a legal issue as soon as possible. In recognition of this, during your consultation, we will aim to provide you with an estimate of the costs and likely timescale for resolution. In some cases, especially those involving serious, complex matters, it may be difficult to estimate, but this will all be explained fully to you.

At The Family Lawyer, we can help you in all aspects of family law matters. For a FREE 15 minutes consultation contact The Family Lawyer by calling 1300 111 835 or emailing enquiries@thefamilylawyer.com.au

Brianna and Christian have been very professional, thorough and made both me and my fathers experience very easy to understand. They provided the best advice and support to achieve a great result with our court matter. Brianna was very prompt in all responses and understood our circumstances which made the process very smooth. Thank you Brianna and team, we are very thankful for your caring approach. I would highly recommend your services to anyone.

I would like to thank Kehsee and Kristdel from the Family Lawyers for working tirelessly for me on my separation matter. I came to them a pretty broken person from a previous solicitor. I had some ups and downs but they always dealt with me with grace and did an exceptional job. The rates they charge are very good. I would also like to give a massive thanks to Mr Matthew O'Grady (barrister and mediator). All the people previously mentioned worked really hard to give me a new start and just as importantly they are all quality people. Thank you.

Christian and his team at The Family Lawyer have made our legal experience very easy. They are very understanding and patient team making what was a stressful experience a calm one as we progressed through it. If it wasn't for Christian and his knowledge we would have made some very costly mistakes, both financially and personally. I would recommend Christian and the team at The Family Lawyer to anyone seeking advice and looking to settle affairs. Their pricing was fair and the value we received exceeded our expectations.
