Will conveyancing be a fixed fee?

Often yes for a straightforward residential purchase or sale, plus disbursements such as title searches and registration fees. Ask for the fixed fee and the estimated disbursements separately.

Can a conveyancer do it instead of a lawyer?

In Tasmania, licensed conveyancers can handle property transfers. A lawyer is the better choice if there are complications - an estate, a dispute, a company or trust involved.

What happens if I die without a will?

Your estate is distributed under the statutory rules rather than your wishes, which may not match what you intended, and it can be slower and more expensive for your family. A simple will is inexpensive by comparison.

How are legal fees charged?

Either a fixed fee for a defined task, an hourly rate, or a scale fee for some court work. Ask which applies and ask for an estimate in writing with the assumptions it rests on.

About lawyers in Hobart

Hobart sits between the Derwent estuary and kunanyi / Mount Wellington, and the city runs from the heritage streets of Battery Point and North Hobart out through the northern suburbs and Glenorchy to the eastern shore and south toward the Huon. It is the state's largest centre but still a small city by mainland standards, so most services are within a short drive of the CBD. Winter brings frost in the Derwent Valley and snow on the mountain, and the weather changes fast enough that plans made on a Monday are often remade by Friday.
