More About Our Firm and Clients

Our Experience and Strengths

A core value of Ryan Commercial Lawyers is building and maintaining a long-term relationship with clients. Our commitment is to the:

	Delivery of legal solutions as part of a wider relationship which will involve commercial outcomes;
	The development and use of industry links (including the Australian Hotels Association, Liquor Licensing Victoria and similar bodies) where appropriate; and
	Open and proactive communication with clients to ensure the best possible service and results.

As a smaller firm without the significant overheads or the higher hourly charge-out rates of the larger firms, Ryan Commercial Lawyers can provide high quality and efficient legal advice at a significantly lower cost.

It is our firm’s commitment to provide a quick turn around of work and to be available to our clients when required whether during or outside office hours. We pride ourselves on being responsive and accessible whilst providing cost effective service to our clients.

Ryan Commercial Lawyers has the skills to deal with all issues facing the hospitality, tourism and property sectors and related industries including new issues as they emerge in these ever changing industries. We are constantly monitoring such developments to remain fully conversant with the issues affecting our client’s businesses.

Ryan Commercial Lawyers are committed to understanding the environment in which our clients work and we appreciate the importance of working in partnership to achieve our client’s commercial goals.

Our Fees

Ryan Commercial Lawyers strives to provide legal services that represent value for money. A key factor is an agreed fee arrangement that is fair, transparent, easily administered and provides for predictable legal costs.

While we usually charge an hourly rate for services, Ryan Commercial Lawyers is open to exploring other charging methods which will help our clients to better manage expenditure and legal services. This includes fixed transaction rates, retainer arrangements and capped fee arrangements.

We will actively manage the delivery of our service to minimise cost and to achieve maximum efficiency. This includes ensuring work is allocated to an appropriate level under the supervision of a supervising partner.

Subject to any other agreed arrangements, clients will be invoiced monthly with terms payable in 14 days from the date of invoice.
