James Gatti and the team routinely resolve cases faster than clients expect and make them feel heard throughout. Named staff including Lila, Alet, Jane, Danica, and Aaron earn repeated praise for explaining every step clearly and staying responsive, while family law and criminal matters see consistently strong outcomes.
One negative review highlights a timing issue: a client learned the day before court they no longer had funds, having spent their full savings already. Across the broader cohort, transparency and empathy stand out as signatures of the firm.
Reviewers consistently praise responsive staff and smooth handling of conveyancing and disputes. Michelle M. and Doug are named repeatedly for clear communication, quick turnaround, and problem-solving under pressure.
O'Sullivan Davies divides sharply on delivery. Five-star clients credit named staff like Kim Morrison and Trevor with empathy and professionalism during separation and family violence matters. One- and two-star reviewers document a consistent pattern across 13 years: costs ballooning from initial estimates (e.g. $50K–$75K to $150K), avoidable filing errors, promised credits never applied, and pursuit of clients through small claims court days before trial. Multiple independent reviewers report charges of $50K+ for short matters, padded communications, and poor court outcomes despite substantial fees.
All seven reviews are five-star. Clients consistently report feeling heard and supported by Michael and the team, particularly in family law matters. They praise clear advice, professional handling of urgent cases, and empathetic guidance through difficult periods.
