You can book a free initial consultation by calling (02) 8123 4567, emailing info@fraserhartleylawyers.com, or using the consultation form on this site. We respond to all enquiries within 24 hours.
Bring any documents relevant to your matter — contracts, correspondence, court documents, financial records — along with a list of questions and a timeline of events. Don't worry if you don't have everything; we'll guide you on what else we need.
Fees depend on the nature and complexity of your matter. At your first consultation we discuss the fee structure openly — including fixed-fee options where available — so there are no surprises. You'll receive a written costs agreement before we begin.
Open communication is central to how we work. If you have concerns at any stage, raise them with your attorney or our client care team — we'll review your matter promptly and work with you on the best path forward.
