We are different!

Strategic Lawyers is not like every other law firm in North Queensland. Unlike other firms, we are not afraid to do away with archaic traditions in favour of creative and modern solutions.

We have done away with complex legal jargon that you won't be able to understand, and introduced a policy of using plain language to simplify things for you. We do not judge the value of our employees by the number of billable hours they work, and instead look for quality work to be completed in an efficient manner. We use specialist contractors instead of in-house generalists, so that you get the best advice. We keep the overheads of the firm to a minimum, so that we can pass on the savings to you.

Most importantly, we do not view the success of the firm through the prism of commercial gain, but through our ability to satisfy and achieve the best possible outcome for each and every client that walks through the door.

About Us

Through the use of specialist contractors in property law, commercial law, family law, immigration law, wills and estates, personal injury law and litigation, we can provide the highest quality advice at a fixed price. We keep our overheads to a minimum, and pass on the savings to our clients.

The difference between Strategic Lawyers and other law firms is that we complete all work on the basis of a fixed-fee quote. You will know exactly what the end price will be, and are not charged extra for calling or emailing us with updates. Another advantage of the fixed-fee billing model, is that work will be completed efficiently, as there is no incentive to draw things out over a long period of time. 

Importantly, we do not compromise on quality or customer service. We recruit only the most knowledgable and personable lawyers, so that as a firm, we can provide 100% satisfaction to all our clients.

Pro Bono

Here at Strategic Lawyers, we do not view the world through the prism of commercial gain.

We think about the bigger picture in which our services can be used for the improvement of society in general and to aid people who are disadvantaged, whether that be financially or intellectually. 

For this reason, we have a policy to take on selected matters either free of charge or at a heavily discounted rate.

If you know of a person or organisation who could utilise our services for the public good, we would love to hear from you.

SERVICES

We do not view the success of the firm through the prism of commercial gain and believe that the most important outcome is client satisfaction. Through the abolishment of six-minute units and billable hours, and the introduction of our fixed-fee billing model, we are able to provide unparalleled value for money and customer service.

Never again will you be worried about a 20 second phone call or two sentence email costing you an arm and a leg. We actually encourage you to keep us informed about developments and changes to the situation, as often these are important details and need to be included in our correspondence or case.

Our philosophy is that often the best way to resolve your issue is away from the financial and emotional stress of Court. Our views are reflected in the following quote from Abraham Lincoln:

“Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise when you can. As a peacemaker the lawyer has superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.”

Here at Strategic Lawyers, we are not afraid to do away with archaic traditions in favour of creative and futuristic solutions. Our service extends far beyond legislative compliance as we are able to work closely with you and all who are involved in the matter, whether it is your family, accountant, consultant, financial advisor or doctor.

Strategic Lawyers recruits only experienced, customer service oriented and forward-thinking lawyers, and we have experts in the following fields:

  • Property Law,
  • Commercial Law,
  • Intellectual Property,
  • Family Law,
  • Wills & Estate Planning,
  • Personal Injury Law,
  • Immigration Law, and
  • Litigation.


Philosophy

We are committed to doing what is best for you. 

We know that every personal and business situation is different so we make it our business to understand what has happened and how we can best help you. We don\'t categorise you and decide which precedent document best suits you, but instead accept that you are unique and think creatively about how we can customise our advice to suit you and your situation.

Strategic Lawyers is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for you, in a timely manner and at an affordable price.

Trademarks - All names, logos and trademarks are the intellectual property of Strategic Lawyers or the third parties who have contributed to the establishment of Strategic Lawyers. Nothing on the Website or contained in an email, letter or any other correspondence, should be interpreted as granting any rights to use or distribute any names, logos or trademarks, without the express written agreement of Strategic Lawyers or the relevant contributor.

Other

Currency and GST - All prices are displayed in Australian dollars (AUD) and are exclusive of Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Pricing and Availability of Products and Services – Although Strategic Lawyers makes every effort to ensure that products or services advertised, promoted or sold online or offline are available when so indicated, and that information and prices concerning products and services listed on the Website or through any other means including social networking platforms are accurate, the prices and availability of products and services are subject to change without notice.

Products and services that are ordered through the Website or promoted through any online or offline means may or may not be customisable and have set inclusions and exclusions. For information pertaining to the inclusions and exclusions of products and services advertised online, you should contact the firm.

Events - Times, dates and locations of programs, seminars and events listed on the Website or conveyed to you through any other online or offline means, are subject to change without notice, however Strategic Lawyers will endeavour to contact interested parties to inform them of any changes prior to the event.

Ordering Products and Services - Receipt of a quotation/invoice is an offer from Strategic Lawyers to complete the work for you. You are deemed to have accepted the offer when you make payment of our invoice. At the discretion of Strategic Lawyers, you will have the option of paying by credit card, cheque, bank transfer or cash. You may accept Strategic Lawyers offer by following the instructions for credit or debit card payment on the Website, in which case you will be deemed to have accepted when you receive the payment confirmation email. You will be deemed to have accepted the offer when a cash payment is made, or when the cheque is deposited by Strategic Lawyers (which subsequently successfully clears), or when the funds are transferred by the client to Strategic Lawyers account and this has been confirmed orally or in writing by the client to Strategic Lawyers (which subsequently successfully clears in our bank account). Once the contract has been entered into through the client's acceptance of our offer, the terms and conditions as outlined here will apply in full.

If at any stage payment is made through the Website or by any other means for an advertised or orally described product or service without Strategic Lawyers issuing a quotation/invoice, this will be deemed to be an offer by you. Strategic Lawyers will not be deemed to have accepted this offer until it is acceptance confirmed to you in writing or if we then provide the good or service for you.

Refunds -  As we are a fixed fee billing firm and payment of our invoice is required in advance, we are unable to provide refunds on fixed fee invoices which have already been paid even if you have not yet been issued with a receipt or order confirmation (unless we are unable to commence or complete the work as discussed above under “Ordering Products and Services”).  This no refunds policy exists because you have already accepted our offer and we have entered a contract and we have gone ahead and started working on your matter.  In the event of a service being cancelled by a client prior to the agreed work being carried out in it’s entirety, a partial credit may be applied to the client's account, at the complete discretion of Strategic Lawyers. If approved by Strategic Lawyers, the credit will be applied to the client’s account and will be available to use towards any other legal matter for which the client retains our services. The timeframe in which the credit must be used is at the discretion of Strategic Lawyers. Full or partial refunds cannot be given in the event of work being cancelled for any reason, except at the discretion of Strategic Lawyers.

Change of Instructions - If a client changes their original instructions in any way, Strategic Lawyers reserves the right to invoice the client for any additional work that was not included in the original invoice. If the new or modified instructions mean that Strategic Lawyers must do less work to complete the work, a partial credit or partial refund may be issued, at the discretion of Strategic Lawyers, as discussed above under “Refunds”.

Payment - Products purchased through the Website or in response to an invoice received by email, mail or any other means, must be paid by any payment method specified and available through the Website or specified on the invoice.

Credit card payments can be made via the secure payment system on the payment page of the Website. Strategic Lawyers accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express. You must only use a valid credit card that you are authorised to use to pay for the selected products and services. In using the payment system on our Website, you authorise Strategic Lawyers to debit the specified amount from your nominated credit card at the time you confirm payment.
