Pricing for Legal Services
We strive to make our flat-fee pricing as transparent as possible. We are happy to provide online pricing information for a selection of our conveyancing, estate planning, and corporate services.
Not all of our services are predictable enough for us to offer quotes. For pricing for any other area of law or legal issue, including civil and commercial litigation, please contact us.

Personal Estate Planning
Estate planning usually involves 1 person or a spousal couple and grows in complexity with the need for supporting legal documents such a Power of Attorney (POA) or a Representation Agreement (RPA).

Your advisor will be happy to discuss the options with you for your unique situation.
