Legal Terms


Last updated: [Insert date]. These terms govern your use of risemigration.com.au and the Rise Migration Lawyers client portal (the “Website”), operated by Rise Migration Lawyers Pty Ltd (ABN 31 695 470 814). By using the Website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

1. No legal advice

The information on this Website is general in nature and is provided for information only. It does not constitute legal advice and must not be relied upon as a substitute for advice tailored to your circumstances. Using this Website, contacting us, or submitting an enquiry does not create a solicitor–client relationship. A solicitor–client relationship is established only when we have agreed in writing to act for you and any applicable conflict and engagement checks are complete.

2. Currency and accuracy

Australian migration law and policy change frequently. While we take care to keep the Website accurate and current, we make no warranty that all content is complete, accurate or up to date at the time you access it. You should obtain specific advice before acting on anything you read here.

3. Tools and calculators

Any calculators, estimators or eligibility tools on the Website (for example, the points calculator and fee estimator) provide general indicative guidance only, based on the information you enter. Results are not an assessment of your eligibility, a quote, or a guarantee of any outcome. Visa outcomes are determined by the relevant decision-maker, not by us.

4. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Website or its content. Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded.

5. Intellectual property

All content on the Website — including text, graphics, logos, the Rise dot mark, and layout — is owned by or licensed to Rise Migration Lawyers Pty Ltd and is protected by copyright and other laws. You may view and print content for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may not reproduce, republish or commercially exploit any content without our prior written consent.

6. Third-party links

The Website may contain links to third-party websites (for example, government or assessing authority sites). We provide these for convenience only and are not responsible for the content, accuracy or availability of any external site.

7. Client portal

Access to the secure client portal is provided to authorised clients only. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. Please notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorised access. We may suspend or withdraw access where necessary to protect the security of the portal.

8. Privacy

Our handling of your personal information is described in our Privacy Charter, which forms part of these terms.

9. Regulation and complaints

Rise Migration Lawyers is an Australian law practice; our solicitors are admitted to the legal profession and are subject to the applicable professional conduct rules. If you have a concern about our services, please contact us first so we can address it.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that State.
