Affordable, Fixed-Fee Arrangements

Fidens Lawyers are committed to safe guarding your rights and fiercely protecting our client's from investigation to sentence and everything in between. Our free, no-obligation consultation guarantees access to expert legal advice at the earliest opportunity. 


We understand that the costs of a private solicitor can be prohibitively expensive and that is why we work on a fixed-fee basis wherever possible, offering flexible payment arrangements via bank deposit, credit card or bPay.   


From the outset, you can expect total transparency from us. We will advise you of your options and the costs associated with each so that you can make an informed decision based on realistic expectations. 

Personalised Approach to Your Case

At Fidens Lawyers, we understand that every case is unique. That is why we take a personalised approach to every case, tailoring our strategy to fit your individual needs and circumstances.


If we see an opportunity to negotiate with Police, we will take it. Our solicitors have achieved great success in plea negotiations, and in some cases even having the matter withdrawn before court.  


At Fidens Lawyers, we genuinely care about our clients and we understand that reasons for offending, and in particular, re-offending are complex. We are committed to your rehabilitation and how we can support you to minimise your contact with the criminal justice system moving forward. 


We have carefully developed a network of solicitors, barristers, forensic psychiatrists, psychologists,  rehabilitation facilities,  all manner of resources to assist you through this process.
