About Us
Providing value for money
Our experience allows Carter Lawyers to provide you with better solutions in less time and at less expense.
Carter Lawyers want to be part of your team and will invest the time in your business to develop the relationship and understanding necessary to provide value for money.
We are conscious that time out of your business is a costly distraction and will work with you to minimise this. Providing value for money means that we focus on keeping our expenses down but also ensuring that your time is used effectively.
Our online services and information will help save you time and enable you to brief lawyers more efficiently and therefore reduce your cost.
Carter Lawyers are commercial focused and result driven. We take a pragmatic business approach to your legal and commercial issues.
Our charge out rates are considerably less than larger firms containing lawyers with similar experience and seniority.
Carter Lawyers charges in actual time - not in blocks of 6 or 10 minutes. We do not charge for any time under 5 minutes.
Carter Lawyers do not charge for internal disbursements, such as photocopying, facsimiles, postage, mobile, interstate and international phone calls, local transport, secretarial, administrative or law clerk time. We do not charge for travel time and we do not charge travel expenses (other than interstate or international flights). Put simply, you only pay for costs when we incur them on your behalf.
We can create ready-to-use templates of your most frequently used documents and provide you and your staff with training to assist you in handling your common legal and commercial issues.
We offer numerous fee options to suit your needs, including:
- fee on success to share financial risk
- fixed fee plans
- an hourly rate
We understand that to run your business a degree of certainty on your expenses is necessary.
If you do not think that you are getting value for money from Carter Lawyers, call us and negotiate a lower fee.
