Yes, we are an Incorporated Legal Practice that has been set up under the Legal Profession Uniform Law (NSW).
Our office is based at 37 Queen Stree in Auburn, NSW but, as an online law firm, our lawyers work remotely and can assist you wherever you are in Australia.
We operate as a ‘virtual’ law firm, also known as an online law firm, meaning that the majority of our work is conducted online, including our meetings with clients. Being a virtual law firm allows us to work with clients who are located all around Australia, and allows us to help clients that may be too busy to meet with a lawyer in person. Whether we communicate via phone, email or online conferencing tools, we have found that our clients love the flexibility that a virtual law firm provides.
Being an online law firm, we are able to assist clients from all around Australia.
No, you do not need to physically attend our offices to receive legal advice. Most of our meetings occur via phone or online conferencing tools, and as such we are able to provide our services without meeting in person.
At Stephen John Lawyers, we are passionate about finding creative ways to deliver legal services and make complicated processes easier for our clients. We provide timely, practical and affordable commercial law services to our clients, who are business owners and entrepreneurs, to give them the confidence to start, build and protect their businesses.
We care about your business. We listen to you, and guide you as to what, why and how legal services are being carried out. By doing this, we achieve our goal of long-standing relationships that are founded on trust and performance.
We want to make working with us as simple as possible. Just submit an enquiry using the form on our website and we will contact you within 1 business day to learn more about your business and project. We will then provide an email with our fees, scope of work and timing. You can accept our proposal by making an upfront payment to our trust account. We handle your trust money in accordance with the rules and guidelines of the NSW Law Society. We’ll then connect you with one of our lawyers who will take care of your matter. This lawyer will be the main contact on your matter, and will keep you updated as your matter progresses.
We handle a wide variety of business law, contract law, corporate and commercial law, drone law and intellectual property matters.
We love working on a fixed fee basis and wherever possible we will charge on a fixed fee basis. Otherwise, we will provide an accurate fee estimate for your approval before we commence any work and will provide you with updates on fees as the matter progresses.
If you choose Stephen John Lawyers as your lawyer, you can rest assured that we will commit to you and your matter in order to ensure the best possible outcome. Unlike the traditional law firm, we are transparent about what we do, how we do it and how much it costs. We will be upfront about the potential outcomes of your matter, and we will provide you with information that may help in deciding how to respond to different issues that may arise. We are creative thinkers, and we will provide advice as to how best to achieve your desired outcome.
