Our lawyers also regularly travel from Melbourne to China, Indonesia and New Zealand, as well as interstate. We also have a Chinese local call number direct to our office in Melbourne. Costs billing and money are important to our clients and to us. Our Terms of Engagement contain a Costs Agreement and Costs Disclosure Statement. We consider it good business practice to be completely transparent and flexible about the way we charge for our services. Wherever possible, we are happy to fix a fee so you can budget. In some situations, because of the nature of the instructions, it is not possible to reasonably fix or even estimate a figure. We will in those circumstances set benchmarks by agreement with you and provide you with an estimated range of fees. Regular communication will keep you fully informed of your financial exposure to our fees. Our principal areas of practice include – • Commercial and Corporate Law • Litigation • Property Law • Building and Construction Law • Acquisitions & Sale of Business • Inbound Investment • Wills, Probate & Estate Planning • Family law • Immigration Law • Charities and Not for Profit Organisations • Other legal services
