Yesterday Alan Jones spoke out for the first time since being charged with historical sexual assault after the 83-year-old fronted Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court on fresh charges relating to at least 10 alleged victims.

He declared he will be emphatic in his defence of every one of the 34 charges of indecent assault against him, and yesterday he entered a not-guilty plea in court.

Represented by a top legal team - renowned defence lawyers Chris Murphy and Brian Wrench, one can only imagine how much the case will cost.

Taurus Legal Management practice manager Jodie Engerer told Bill McDonald on 4BC Mornings, 'So the cases that my firm's seen, it can rack up easily into the hundreds of thousands.'

'Alan's matter gets probably in the millions. The specialty of the lawyer, the intense court process, and time restraints on when things have to be filed. The tons of witnesses that will need to be interviewed, and again, the specialty of the lawyer.'
