Frequently asked questions
We trade in both NSW and Victoria — does that change our contracts?
It can. Governing law and jurisdiction clauses, retail lease legislation, payroll tax thresholds, workers compensation schemes and some licensing regimes differ between NSW and Victoria. We draft with both in mind rather than assuming one state's default position.
Which areas do you cover?
Albury, Wodonga, Lavington, Thurgoona, Corowa, Howlong, Rutherglen, Beechworth, Yackandandah, Wangaratta and the wider border region.
How much do commercial lawyers cost in Albury–Wodonga?
Fixed fees, quoted upfront. A contract review is typically $800–$2,000 + GST; a shareholders' agreement $3,500–$6,500 + GST; fractional general counsel from $2,500 + GST per month.
Do you do family, criminal or property law?
No — commercial law only. We'll refer you to a local firm for anything outside that.
