Family Law Fee Assistance
At Ryder Lawyers, we understand that resolving property matters within family law, including property division, negotiations, or court proceedings, can be financially challenging. To ensure our clients achieve fair outcomes, we can assist you in accessing legal funding to cover your legal fees for these matters. However, please note that legal funding is not available for clients solely seeking to resolve parenting matters.
The legal funding process for our family law clients is designed to be simple and efficient, without the complex application procedures typically associated with personal loans. Applications are generally processed within a week, which is a reasonable timeframe for most non-urgent matters. Once your legal funding is approved, we can promptly begin work on your case to move toward resolution.
Ryder Lawyers partners with Just Fund as our preferred lender for family law clients, but we understand that ultimately, the choice of lender rests with you.
We highly recommend Just Fund because they offer an exceptional client experience and are Australia’s only specialist provider of family law finance. Their deep understanding of the challenges faced by family law clients allows them to streamline and simplify the funding process for our clients.
Just Fund’s mission is to empower individuals by providing accessible financial solutions for legal matters, making it easier for those dealing with family law issues to obtain the support they need.
How Legal Funding Works
Legal funding from providers such as Just Fund covers the expenses associated with managing your family law case. This may include legal fees, barrister fees, court filing costs, property valuations, mediation expenses, and other related costs.
With no repayment required until your family law matter is resolved, and only from proceeds such as the sale of property or funds secured through refinancing, this type of funding reduces stress and levels the playing field, allowing you to fully engage with legal representation and seek the best possible outcome.
When to Apply for Legal Funding
Many clients choose to apply for legal funding at the beginning of their family law case. Our team at Ryder Lawyers can assist with your application and liaise with Just Fund once you have signed your costs agreement. Alternatively, you can apply directly through their website.
While some clients prefer to pay for legal services as they go, family law matters can be lengthy and financial situations may change. If your circumstances shift or if you wish to allocate your funds elsewhere, we can help you access legal funding at any point during your matter.
If concerns about legal costs have delayed your decision to resolve your family law issue, legal funding could provide the solution you need. With approved funding in place, you can confidently move forward with the skilled guidance of Ryder Lawyers’ family law team.
