SPECIALIST ADVOCATES. We will advise you in advance if we need to brief a specialist advocate (including any barrister) in any of your matters. If the advocate provides us with disclosure in accordance with the Legal Profession Act 2007 (QLD) (LPA) or the basis of fee calculation, we will pass this information on to you. Such disclosure may also include arrangements for specialist advocates to refrain from collection of fees charged until such time as the amount can be recovered from another party or other source because of rights given under legislation, court orders or otherwise and in the event that they cannot be so recovered the advocates will waive those professional fees. As a matter of public policy, the law provides immunity from suit in relation to advocacy. Nothing in this agreement affects an advocate's immunity from suit in relation to any advocacy conducted on your behalf.
