If you are a non-profit organisation why do you charge for services?

Although we are a non-profit organisation we do not receive grants or funding from the government. We do receive a small amount of donations from organisations and individuals that support our vision and mission however these donations do not fully cover our operating costs. As we are unable to fully cover our costs through funding, grants or donations our costs are passed on to our clients. While our services are not free they are affordable. As a non-profit law firm the cost that we pass on to our clients is the actual cost of providing the service. There is no additional revenue or profit component built into our costs.

How is New Way Lawyers different to other Law Firms?

In some ways New Way Lawyers is no different to other law firms. Like other law firms New Way Lawyers provides high quality legal services and is required to comply with the professional standards imposed by legislation, such as the Legal Profession Act 2007. However there is one major difference between New Way Lawyers and other law firms. New Way Lawyers operates on a non-profit basis while other law firms operate on a commercial basis. Operating as a non-profit organisation allows us to focus on people rather than profit.

A sincere thank you Andrew for all your help. I deeply appreciate the help you and your team have given me. My only regret is that I didn’t enlist your help sooner.

I wanted to thank you Joanne for all your work and effort on behalf of my family and I. Everyone at New Way Lawyers has been very helpful and made an unfamiliar process relatively easy for me. Thanks so much for everything. All the best.

Can you believe this day has finally arrived?! I couldn’t let it pass without thanking you sincerely Andrew for bringing this matter to an end, when at times it wasn’t going anywhere and I simply lost sight of the finish line.
