What recent reviews say

Most clients praise the team's warmth and expertise in wills and estate work. Two recent reviews, however, report serious follow-up failures: drafts delayed without explanation, emails and letters ignored for months, and requests for file return unanswered. Strong reputation sits against real accountability gaps.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Praised for
  • empathetic, warm approach to difficult matters
  • knowledgeable, professional team
  • clear guidance through complex processes
  • reasonable fees compared to competitors
Watch-outs
  • poor follow-up after initial appointment
  • slow turnaround on drafts and amendments
  • lack of communication and responsiveness

Rachel Robson and Dimitri stand out for their criminal defence work and emotional support during family disputes; major charges dropped, clients kept out of jail, and long-term matters resolved favourably are common positives. The firm's strength lies in its named lawyers, quick turnarounds, and genuine check-ins, though a minority report serious failures in complex conveyancing and parenting access cases where communication broke down and fees continued without progress.
