How much do lawyers charge?

Expect to pay anywhere from $50 to thousands per hour. It depends on your location, type and complexity of the case, experience of the lawyer and size of the firm.

Corporate lawyers, criminal lawyers, employment lawyers and family lawyers are common in Australia.

Do I need a lawyer?
