Built by costs lawyers,
for the people who pay the bills.

Legal work is often recorded in six-minute units. Each unit becomes part of an invoice. Our work in costs law has shown us how much an experienced reviewer can learn by looking closely at the individual entries.

As firms adopt new tools and billing practices evolve, that scrutiny remains essential. Sixth Minute brings it to clients before payment, rather than leaving questions to a later costs dispute.

Charlotte is an experienced litigator and legal costs specialist. Before focusing on costs law, she spent more than ten years working on complex litigation in the NSW and Federal courts.

Her practice includes complex costs disputes, class actions and expert reports for Supreme Court and Federal Court proceedings. She brings practical insight into how legal work is carried out, and what it should fairly cost.

Sixth Minute is operated by The Legal Costs Consultants Pty Ltd. Our approach draws on the team’s specialist costs experience and methodology.

When queries cannot resolve a bill, we can discuss separately scoped costs assessment or dispute work. Throughout, our aim is to support fair conversations and strong working relationships.
