Where it all started

National Costing Lawyers was established by Alan Adrian in 2017, as a complementary service offering to his Legal Costs Consulting firm QICS.

Alan began his career at Law Costs Pty Ltd in 1981 and eventually acquired this business with his brother Gary Adrian in 2009, joining forces to become a powerhouse of knowledge and experience. By drawing upon this wealth of experience and knowledge, National Costing Lawyers is now positioned within the stable of one of the longest and most established Legal Costs Consulting firms in Australia.
