QICS was established in 1989 by Alan Adrian after learning the trade at Law Costs Pty Ltd from 1981. In 2009 Alan acquired Law Costs with his brother, Gary Adrian, joining forces to become a powerhouse of knowledge and experience. By drawing upon this wealth of experience and knowledge QICS has grown to be one of the longest and most established Legal Costs Consulting firms in Australia. Our philosophy is simple: as trusted experienced problem solvers who are thorough and unbiased. We are realistic about what is recoverable and what is not. We strive to be respected for fairness, credibility, and balanced relationships with all parties involved in legal costing. Our own costs are transparent and we provide certainty to our clients by negotiating the fees prior to undertaking the work. As objective, independent experts in the field of legal costing, our goal is simple: to provide you with the power of balance. You already know how complicated ensuring optimal costs recovery can be whilst leaving clients happy with your service. This is where our expert legal costing consultants come in. With many years of success in striking the perfect balance between lawyer and client happiness, we’ve got all the tools and know-how to secure the best possible outcome for both parties. We work with you to enjoy full cooperation and support—in addition to unparalleled fairness and equity—from our multi-talented team of legal costing specialists. Do business the way you’re used to. Do you need our team in-house? We can do that. Do you prefer remote assistance? We can do that too. The same goes for digital and paper files. Our team is happy to work with both—no matter the volume. Just tell us what you need, and we’ll handle the rest.
