How Can We Help You?
What pricing options do you offer?
Our range of pricing options means we can tailor our service to your unique requirements.
Fixed fee – Eliza Legal may agree to undertake your family law matter at a fixed fee that wont be exceeded.
Deferred fees – We understand that the cost of legal representation can be something prohibitive in you seeking the expert advice you deserve. We have teamed up with third party finance providers, Plenti and JustFund, who can provide loans for eligible clients with equity in their property to fund their legal proceedings until the matter is finalised. - Added as FAQ on each service page as well as main category page.
In the midst of separation and need some guidance?
Are you looking for some clarity around what your future may look like? We can provide you with early advice in relation to the options available to you moving forward, and help you formulate the best pathway moving forward.
Are you unsure of your financial situation?
Have you been kept ‘in the dark’ about the finances? Perhaps your former partner runs a business and you are not privy to any of the financial information? We can help by researching, identifying and collating certain information (and then explain these to you!) so you can make informed decisions about your financial settlement.
