Lawyers by state

Engaging a lawyer: what to verify first

In Australia, a lawyer who practises must hold a current practising certificate issued by the law society or legal services board in their state or territory. This is non-negotiable, and the relevant body keeps a register you can check. Practising certificates can carry conditions, and a lawyer providing legal services without a current one is acting unlawfully - so for anything significant, it's worth confirming.

Law is highly specialised: family law, conveyancing, criminal, commercial, wills and estates, employment and personal injury are quite different fields. Choose a practitioner or firm whose work matches your matter, and don't be shy about asking how often they handle cases like yours. Many firms offer a fixed-fee or free initial consultation for common matters, which is a low-risk way to assess fit.

On costs, lawyers in Australia are required to disclose their fees and provide a costs agreement, usually in writing, before or soon after taking on your matter. Fees may be fixed (common for conveyancing or simple wills), hourly, or - for some personal injury and litigation work - on a 'no win, no fee' basis. Read the costs agreement carefully, including how disbursements and any uplift fees work, and ask for an estimate of the likely total.

What to check before you hire

  • Confirm a current practising certificate with the state law society/board
  • Choose a lawyer whose specialty matches your matter
  • Insist on a written costs agreement and fee disclosure
  • Understand whether fees are fixed, hourly or 'no win, no fee'
  • Ask for an estimate of total costs including disbursements

Whatever you do, these 10 ways to get more local customers apply.
