How Do We Charge?
Similar to the concept of ‘shopping malls’, Agape Henry Crux, provides the convenience for clients to shop around for legal representatives, types of services and prices to suit their needs.
ALL UNDER 1 ROOF.
If you’re on a budget, we have junior lawyers with lower rates. If you’re looking for free legal advice, some of our lawyers are open to pro bono cases. There are lawyers who are book-smart, while others are street-smart.
The younger lawyers tend to be very fast & responsive, but a handful are slow (although they beg to differ, that slow & steady wins the race).
The older lawyers are usually more attentive and have a reputation of customer relations. But if money is no object, you can engage a bunch of them or all of them. The beautiful part is that if you find that your immigration lawyer does not meet your expectations, you have the option of changing immigration lawyers with different teams, without having to completely change law firms where they’d charge a significant amount as part of the initial fact finding and preliminary advice.
As a point of reference, depending on the complexity of your case and the immigration lawyer or lawyers you choose, you’re looking at approximately $1,000 to $10,000 + GST. Once we have assessed your situation more thoroughly and you’ve decided on the pathways we’ve laid out for you, we’ll provide you with an accurate quote and breakdown of fees.
