Website Terms and Order Terms
The terms that apply when you use this website and when you order documents online from Kallan Lawyers.
Effective date, 1 May 2026
Part A. Website terms of use.
Acceptance.
By using kallanlawyers.com.au, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Information only, not advice.
The content on this website is general information about Australian law and our services. It is not legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice. It does not take account of your individual circumstances. You should not act on it without obtaining professional advice tailored to your situation.
No solicitor-client relationship.
Reading the site, sending an enquiry, or starting an order does not, by itself, create a solicitor-client relationship between you and Kallan Lawyers. A relationship arises only when we accept your instructions in writing and a costs disclosure has been given (where required).
Intellectual property.
The text, images, logo, structure, and code of this website are owned by Kallan Lawyers or used with permission. You may view and print pages for personal or internal business use, but you may not copy, distribute, or republish the site or its contents without our written consent.
Linked sites.
Our site may link to third-party sites. We do not control those sites, and we are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability.
Liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all liability for any loss arising from your use of the site, including any reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.
Part B. Online order terms.
When you order documents.
When you complete and submit an order form, you are giving us instructions to prepare the documents listed in the order. By submitting, you agree to the order terms below, the acknowledgements you ticked, and the indicative fee shown for the document pack.
Costs disclosure and engagement.
For matters where total legal costs are likely to exceed $750 (excluding GST and disbursements), the Legal Profession Uniform Law requires that we provide a written costs disclosure before the work is started. After receiving your order, we will send a written costs disclosure and engagement confirmation. The matter does not proceed until that disclosure has been provided and you have acknowledged it.
Indicative fees.
The fees shown on the order pages are indicative fixed fees for the standard scope of each document pack. The fee may be increased where the work falls outside standard scope, including custom drafting, urgent turnaround outside our normal turnaround, multiple parties or structures, or complications that arise during preparation. Any change to the fee will be quoted to you in writing before any extra work is started.
Scope.
The order is for the preparation of the documents described, based on the information you enter in the form. It does not include legal, tax, accounting, financial, or commercial advice. It does not include lodgement of documents, registration of securities, or attendance to executions, unless we agree this with you in writing.
Information you provide.
You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information entered in the form. We will rely on that information without independent verification. If the information is incorrect, incomplete, or inaccurate, the documents may also be incorrect, and we are not liable for that outcome.
Independent advice.
The documents prepared under this online order service are general-purpose documents. Before signing or acting on them, the client should obtain independent legal, tax, accounting, and financial advice. We strongly recommend you do so, and you confirm this in the acknowledgements at the time of submitting your order.
Payment.
An invoice will be issued on completion of the documents (or on draft delivery, depending on the matter). Payment terms are 7 days from the date of the invoice unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Cancellation.
You may cancel an order at any time before drafting starts and no fee is payable. Once drafting has started, a pro-rata fee may be charged for work already done, calculated reasonably and disclosed to you in writing.
Limitation of liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising from or in connection with each order, however caused, is limited to the fee paid for the document pack. We exclude all liability for consequential, indirect, special, or third-party loss, including loss of profit, loss of opportunity, or tax consequences. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.
Liability limited by a scheme.
Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.
Governing law.
These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. The courts of Victoria have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute.
