1. General information only
The content of this website is provided for general information only. It is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for advice about your particular circumstances.
Legal rights and obligations depend on the relevant facts, evidence, jurisdiction and applicable law. You should obtain specific legal advice before acting or refraining from acting on the basis of website content.
2. Accuracy and currency
We take reasonable care in preparing website content. However, laws, procedures and professional practices change, and information may become incomplete or outdated.
Unless otherwise stated, legal content concerns the laws of Victoria and the Commonwealth of Australia as at the date of publication.
We do not represent that the content is comprehensive, current, free from error or applicable to your circumstances.
3. No solicitor-client relationship
Accessing this website, reading its content or submitting an enquiry does not create a solicitor-client relationship and does not oblige us to accept your matter.
A solicitor-client relationship will arise only after:
-
we have completed any necessary conflict, identity and preliminary checks;
-
we have agreed to accept your instructions; and
-
the terms of our engagement have been confirmed.
We accept only a limited number of new matters at any one time. We may decline an enquiry because of capacity, a conflict of interest, the nature of the matter or another professional reason.
Unless we have expressly confirmed that we act for you, you must not assume that we are protecting your interests or taking any step on your behalf.
4. Confidential information
Do not provide original documents, extensive confidential material or highly sensitive information through the website before we confirm that we are able to consider your matter.
Information submitted through the website may be used to assess the enquiry, conduct a conflict check and determine whether we are able to act.
5. Urgent matters and time limits
Website enquiries may not be reviewed immediately.
You must not use the website to:
-
serve legal documents;
-
give formal notice;
-
communicate time-critical instructions; or
-
seek urgent assistance where delay may prejudice your rights.
Legal matters may be subject to strict limitation periods, filing deadlines and response dates. You remain responsible for protecting your position unless and until we expressly agree to act for you.
For urgent assistance, telephone our office and obtain immediate legal advice.
6. No guarantee of outcome
Descriptions of our experience, services, representative matters or previous outcomes do not constitute a promise or guarantee.
The outcome of a legal matter depends on its facts, evidence, applicable law, the conduct of the parties and the decisions of courts, tribunals and other authorities.
