PAY AT THE END

Get legal help now, pay your fees at the end

Worried the cost of legal advice is out of reach right now? You may not have to pay upfront. In many family law matters, external funding can cover your approved legal fees today — so you can protect your future and pay later, often from your settlement.

  • Free, no-obligation call
  • Brisbane & Sunshine Coast
  • Divorce, property & parenting
  • Funding options may be available
Can’t pay upfront? You still have options. We work with external funding providers like JustFund who may cover your approved legal fees now, so you can get started and pay at the end of your matter.

Money shouldn’t decide who gets good legal advice

Separation often hits at the worst possible time financially. Savings get tight, accounts can be frozen, and the assets you’re entitled to are frequently tied up in the relationship — sometimes controlled by the very person you’re separating from.

It can feel like you’re stuck before you’ve even begun. You’re not. For suitable matters, external funding may cover your approved legal fees now, so the cost of getting started doesn’t stand between you and a fair outcome.

It isn’t right for everyone — but one short, free conversation will tell you whether it’s worth exploring for your situation.

Discussing fee funding options with a lawyer

How it works

1

Have a free chat

Tell us what’s happening in a free 15-minute call. We’ll talk through your options and whether fee funding might suit your matter.

2

We check the fit

If it looks suitable, we can connect you with a funding provider such as JustFund to assess your eligibility — with no obligation.

3

Your fees are covered

Once approved, the provider pays your approved legal invoices, so your matter keeps moving without the upfront pressure.

4

You pay at the end

The funded amount is generally repaid later — often from your settlement or when your matter wraps up, under the provider’s terms.

Is this right for you?

It’s usually worth a conversation if:

  • You’re going through a property settlement and expect funds or assets at the end
  • You need advice now, but cash is tight or your accounts are restricted
  • Your former partner controls most of the money
  • You want to understand where you stand before agreeing to anything
  • Your matter has enough financial substance to support a funding assessment

We’ve partnered with JustFund, one of Australia’s leading family law and estate funding providers. Where it’s appropriate, we may refer eligible clients to JustFund (or another provider) so they can assess whether funding is available for your matter.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pay my family law fees at the end of my matter?
In some cases, yes. It depends on your circumstances, your matter type and whether a funding provider approves your application.
Is this the same as no win no fee?
No. This is not a no win no fee arrangement. It is usually external legal fee funding that may need to be repaid under the provider’s terms.
Does QFLP decide whether I am approved?
No. We can discuss whether funding may be worth exploring, but approval is handled by the funding provider.
What types of matters are most likely to suit this?
It is often more relevant in property settlement matters where there are assets or expected funds available at the end of the matter.
Will I still know what the legal work costs?
Yes. We’ll still give you clear information about fees, invoices and the work being carried out.
Should I apply directly to JustFund?
You can review JustFund’s information directly, but it’s often useful to speak with us first so you understand the legal work that may be required.
