OUR DIFFERENCE MAKES US SPECIAL
- At Surge Legal we aim to do better than the rest and to provide greater affordability and accessibility of legal services through a more personal and progressive service delivery.
- We make your success and accomplishment our absolute main focus. Our culture is about building long-term relationships with our clients based on mutual trust and respect. We treat our clients like family, which differentiates us from traditional law firms.
- Traditional law firms have extremely expensive overheads, outdated systems and large support staff, which results in inefficiency of processes and increased costs being passed on to you, the consumer. Your matter is often just another run-of-the-mill case out of hundreds of other matters. Traditional law firms often do not provide the unique personalised approach you deserve in this difficult time for you. Your matter may be passed around from one solicitor to the other or, worse, put on the back-burner due to more important and pressing issues. Put simply, traditional law firms often deliver inefficient, sub-par results for significant pricing and we aim to address and rectify these inefficiencies.
- At Surge Legal we believe that quality legal services should be delivered with a highly personalised focus and at an affordable price. We are proud to offer such legal services for Family Law, Property Law, Criminal Law and Civil Litigation matters.
- Due to efficiency of our workflow and use of technology we are able to significantly reduce our operational overheads and pass on the savings to our clients, whilst providing an uncompromising level of service. We offer affordable fixed free pricing for most of our services, so you always know exactly how much you will be paying as part of your legal matter. Our pricing approach is plain and transparent, and this gives our clients peace of mind and confidence to choose us over other firms.
- Compassionate leadership is at the cornerstone of our culture, and we aim to deliver the best possible personable legal services tailored specifically to your needs.
- At Surge Legal, your matter is always special and top priority for us. Our ongoing communication with you is paramount and we always listen to your needs. We understand that litigation is often quite a stressful period in the lives of our clients and we offer support and assistance to guide you in these difficult times, whilst achieving the best possible outcome for you.
- Coupled with our experience and expertise in many areas of law, we know we can offer the best legal services for you when it comes to value and results.

CONVEYANCING AND PROPERTY LAW

When you engage a solicitor in your conveyancing matter, as opposed to a conveyancer, it is our view that you should be getting a noticeably higher standard of service than a typical conveyancer is able to provide.
Our top of the range conveyancing service will ensure every issue regarding your sale or purchase matter is taken care of.
Purchase of Real Property
For Purchase matters, we organise a video conference or a face-to-face meeting with you to go over the contract clause by clause and to address all the issues we have identified, so you are able to make an informed decision regarding your purchase.
We keep a constant line of communication with you throughout the purchase process and report to you regularly on the progress of the matter. You will have a complete peace of mind and knowledge that everything is taken care of.
Sale of Real Property

Review of Contract
Some clients often require us to review a Contract for Sale before committing to a purchase. We offer a comprehensive review of contract at a fee of $350 plus GST. The good news is that if you later decide to proceed with the purchase, this amount will be discounted from our usual conveyancing fees.
You can book a review of contract right now online!

Wills and Deceased Estates
Letters of Administration and Grants of Probate
We have years of experience in handling matters relating to the Deceased Estates including obtaining Grants of Probate, Letters of Administration or commencing proceedings in relation to a Family Provisions Claim, if you comprehensive been wrongfully left out of the Will.
We prepare all the documentation necessary to apply for Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration and provide you with important guidance and support along the way.

Family Provision Claims
If you are unsure whether or not you are entitled to receive a part of the Deceased Estate, we carefully assess your individual circumstances and provide detailed advice to you as to the prospects of success of your Family Provision Claim.
This is a complex area of law and you need to have a qualified lawyer by your aside, whom you can trust.
Unlike an Application for Probate or Letters of Administration, matters relating to potential Family Provision Claims need to be carefully assessed during a comprehensive conference with our clients and do not generally qualify for a quick free consultation.
If you would like assistance with the above, you will need to organise an in-depth consultation (at least for 1 hour) so that we can properly assess your circumstances and advise you of your rights pursuant to the Succession Act 2006 (NSW).
