FAQ

How much will a defence lawyer cost?

At the free initial consultation, we will find out more about your case and be better able to determine the amount of work involved. Depending on the charges and the details of your case, we will let you know up-front the fees that will be involved in providing you with a solid defence. We are also able to help you determine if you qualify for Legal Aid and can assist you in the application process. To find out more about the eligibility requirements of Legal Aid, visit their website.

If you are unable to get Legal Aid, we can offer you block-fee billing, which gives you certainty with regards to the legal fees. We offer this because it can take a long time for criminal cases to make their way through the system. Our clients benefit from knowing just how much their defence case will cost from the very beginning.  Unlike hourly charges, block-fee billing is a set, single sum that will include all the work that the legal team will need to do on your behalf. We find clients appreciate the financial clarity that it offers. With our system, clients can feel confident knowing they are getting a strong defence team that is available to them at anytime for no extra costs.

For individuals who are struggling financially, we offer short and long term payment plans so that you can get the best defence.
