Flexible Legal Financing for Family Law Matters

Your Lawyers Turner Riddell Hervey Bay has proudly partnered with JustFund to offer our clients greater financial independence, particularly through family law litigation funding. For some clients it can be a struggle to afford legal fees and disbursements, and limited access to funding sometimes means the settlement process stalls and clients get stuck. This partnership enables our clients to access the legal assistance they deserve to settle their family law matters and move on with their lives without the burden of immediate financial constraints.
