Petherick Cottrell Lawyers in Mandurah operates an efficient legal practice and keeps overheads to a minimum. This is reflected in our costs structure with clients. The firm actively seeks to avoid unpleasant surprises with costs to clients. We achieve this in a number of ways:
- We are open and transparent with our fees and litigation costs from the outset;
- We provide written estimates of costs, and where possible fixed-price fees;
- The firm offers flexible fee options and an initial consultation at $100.00. (Please note family law initial consultations are $330.00 inclusive of GST. This is due to their length – 1 hour, comprehensiveness and complex nature.)
