Legal Fees

It is important to discuss and understand the legal fees at the outset of your relationship with a lawyer.

Fixed fee

For real estate transactions, we charge a fixed fee plus disbursements. We provide our clients specific quotes in advance.

Contingency fee

A contingency fee is a percentage of recovery. It covers fees, although disbursements and taxes may also be incurred by the client. We base the contingency fee on the lawyer’s expectation of success.

Fee-for-service

Our lawyers provide service on an hourly rate. This will be discussed at your first meeting with your lawyer.

For transparency, all lawyers’ fees can be reviewed through the registrar at your local court office under the Legal Profession Act.
