The upgraded GetLaw platform helps clients describe their legal issue and connects them with the right commercial or construction lawyer quickly.

NY, UNITED STATES, December 4, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- GetLaw, a nationwide Australian legal referral platform, has launched an expanded, fully structured lawyer-matching system designed to help individuals, businesses, property owners, contractors and developers quickly connect with qualified Commercial Lawyers, Building Lawyers, Construction Lawyers and Construction Dispute Lawyers across Australia.

Unlike typical legal directories, GetLaw operates as a guided referral service rather than leaving users to browse hundreds of profiles. The platform assists clients in describing their legal issue, organising key details and connecting them with a vetted law firm suited to their situation - all through a transparent and free referral process backed by ongoing support.

With commercial, building and construction matters becoming increasingly time-sensitive and complex, GetLaw aims to provide clarity, speed and confidence for clients who may not know which type of lawyer they need or how to assess relevant expertise.

A Structured Approach to Legal Support

A common challenge Australians face when encountering legal issues is uncertainty about where to begin. Commercial and construction disputes often require immediate action and highly specialised legal knowledge. GetLaw addresses this need through a four-step system:

1. Submit Your Enquiry
Clients describe their issue - from contract problems and payment disputes to building defects, delays, variations, regulatory concerns and business agreements.

2. Personalised Matching
GetLaw reviews the details and matches the client with a lawyer whose experience aligns with the specific legal issue, jurisdiction and urgency.

3. Direct Contact From a Lawyer
The selected law firm contacts the client to discuss the matter, explain potential next steps and outline available strategies.

4. Ongoing Support
GetLaw remains available for clarifications, communication support and guidance to ensure the client feels informed throughout the process.

This model removes guesswork by ensuring each client speaks directly with a lawyer who specialises in the relevant area of law.

Free Referral Process and Transparent Legal Costs

GetLaw’s referral service is free for clients. Legal work is performed by independent Australian law firms that provide visibility into pricing structures, which may include:

• hourly billing,
• fixed-fee services,
• structured payment arrangements,
• guidance on no-win-no-fee options where appropriate.


Based on publicly available practice-area information:

• Building Lawyers typically charge $250–$500 per hour,
• Construction Lawyers generally charge $300–$600 per hour,
• Construction Dispute Lawyers often charge $250–$500 per hour,
• Commercial Lawyers commonly charge rates in the low hundreds, varying by city and complexity.

GetLaw does not influence pricing; it simply facilitates fast and informed access to suitable legal professionals.
