Flexible payment plans to all clients.

Flexible payment plans.

Many people assume they can’t afford expert legal representation—but at East Coast Criminal Lawyers, we believe everyone deserves access to high-quality defence. Our fees are structured to be fair and transparent, ensuring affordability without compromising on service.

For simple matters for example traffic offences we provide a fixed-fee quote and require 50% of the fees to be paid at key stages as the matter progresses with the remaining 50% to be settled via a tailored payment plan over an agreed timeframe. We recocognise that every client’s financial circumstances are unique and we endeavour to make our services accessible.

Once again for complex matters for example drug trafficking we provide a quote at the commencement of your matter, and require 50% of the fees to be paid at key stages, with the remaining 50% to be paid at an agreed timeframe. No additional fees are incurred.

All disbursements for example barrister fees, expert reports, or travel costs sit outside the flexible payment plan.

After your free initial consultation a fixed-fee quote will be provided—so you’ll know exactly what to expect, with no hidden costs or surprises.
