Our Fees
Initial Conference
Before you meet with us for the first time, we will tell you our hourly rate and we will discuss your anticipated costs in this first meeting.
If your case relates to a personal injury claim, you will not be charged for the initial conference.
Starting your Matter
We are upfront and transparent about our fees.
At the start of your matter, we will give you a document disclosing the terms of our engagement and ask you to enter into a Costs Agreement under the Legal Profession Uniform Law (NSW). The Costs Agreement provides the hourly rates that we charge and gives you an estimate of costs and disbursements to undertake your case from start to finish.
No Win No Fee Guarantee
Stern Law offers No Win No Fee arrangements for eligible claims in the following areas of law:
- Medical negligence claims
- Motor vehicle accident claims
- Work injury claims
- Public liability claims
We offer our professional services for eligible compensation claims on a conditional fee basis. This means that you will not be charged for our time and effort unless there is a successful outcome.
Stern Law acts on a No Win No Fee basis in compensation claims, initial consultation is free.
Our credo is that a successful outcome must be a genuine ‘win-win’ where at the end of the day the client is comfortable with the result and considers it a win, even if it is as a result of compromise.
Stern Law combines the eminence and experience of its principal, Terry Stern, with its commitment to providing personalised and ethical service. We promise to be honest with you. If you do not have a strong case, we will set your expectation at the initial consultation.
