Professional Relationship
Merely visiting this website, reading its content, submitting
a general enquiry or sending information through a website form
does not by itself establish a professional engagement for a
particular legal matter.
Whether further professional services can be provided may
depend upon review of the matter, relevant information,
applicable requirements and any necessary engagement
arrangements.
Do not assume that a legal matter has been accepted for
representation solely because an online enquiry, email or
message has been submitted.
05
User Responsibilities
When using the website or requesting consultation, you are
responsible for providing information that is accurate to the
best of your knowledge.
You should:
- Provide accurate contact details.
- Provide relevant and truthful information concerning your enquiry.
- Avoid knowingly providing false or misleading information.
- Provide documents only where you are authorised to provide them.
- Use website facilities only for lawful purposes.
- Take reasonable precautions when transmitting sensitive information electronically.
Incomplete, inaccurate or misleading information may affect
the ability to understand or appropriately respond to an enquiry.
06
Consultation Requests
The website may allow visitors to request a legal consultation
by submitting their name, contact details, service category and
information concerning their legal concern.
Submission of a consultation request means that you are asking
to be contacted regarding the enquiry. It does not guarantee
immediate consultation, acceptance of a matter or availability
of a particular professional.
Additional information may be requested before the nature and
scope of further assistance can be determined.
07
Documents & Information
Users may sometimes be requested to provide documents or
information relevant to their legal concern.
You are responsible for ensuring that information and documents
you provide are accurate, relevant and lawfully available to you.
Unless specifically requested, users should avoid submitting
original documents or unnecessary sensitive information through
general website forms.
Copies or electronic records should be retained by the user
where appropriate.
08
Fees & Payments
Where a consultation or professional service involves a fee,
relevant fee information may be communicated separately depending
on the nature and scope of the requested service.
Fees may vary depending on factors such as the type of matter,
required work, documentation, complexity, professional involvement
and other relevant circumstances.
Users should review and understand applicable fee arrangements
before proceeding with any paid service.
A website enquiry itself should not be interpreted as confirmation
of any particular fee, professional engagement or scope of work
unless this has been separately communicated and agreed.
09
No Guarantee of Legal Outcomes
Legal matters are affected by numerous factors, including the
applicable law, facts, evidence, documents, conduct of other
parties, procedural requirements, decisions of courts or
authorities and other circumstances outside any one person's
control.
Accordingly, no information on this website should be interpreted
as a promise or guarantee of:
- A successful court or legal outcome.
- Settlement of a dispute on particular terms.
- Approval or rejection of any application or proceeding.
- A specific financial recovery or settlement amount.
- A particular time period for resolution.
- Any other predetermined result.
Past experiences, examples or general information, where provided,
should not be interpreted as a guarantee that another matter will
have the same result.
10

If you submit an enquiry or consultation request, you may be
contacted using the contact information that you provide for
purposes related to that request.
Communication may occur through methods made available or
authorised in connection with the enquiry, such as telephone,

you provide is accurate and that you are authorised to use it.
