My Approach
Let's face it, legal costs are expensive. Some people spend excessive amounts on their lawyers with their issue still remaining unresolved and uncertainty as to what is going on or whether there is indeed light at the end of the tunnel.
At Parkes Legal, we try to mitigate your legal costs as much as possible by providing you with cost-effective options at each stage of your matter. However, in some instances, there is no option but for a person to defend their matter or commence proceedings. This is when it can get expensive but rest assured, Parkes Legal is committed to providing you with a great service that leaves no stone unturned in asserting your legal rights to achieve the best outcome whilst also keeping your costs to a minimum.
COMMUNICATION
We understand a person's legal problem can be so overwhelming that they do not even know where to begin to tell their story and are often afraid they may have missed something.
Parkes Legal can assist with empowering clients in providing clear instructions.
The important thing to remember is that your story is going to continue to evolve as your matter progresses. Parkes Legal will direct you through each stage of your matter to ensure your matter is progressing en route towards a prompt resolution whilst also giving you the opportunity to tell your story.
