What recent reviews say

Lauren, Kellie, Cecilia, Tom, and other named staff handle workers' compensation and injury claims with consistent professionalism and accessibility. Clients report feeling supported through long cases (some spanning years), with staff answering questions readily and explaining outcomes clearly. One reviewer lost contact after missed calls and slow callback, a rare but significant gap in an otherwise uniformly strong track record.

The team specialises in workplace injuries, falls, motor accidents, and public liability. Reviewers specifically praise staff availability during stressful periods and transparent fee discussions. Several clients returned across years, suggesting sustained confidence in the service.

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.

Strong older reviews praise the team's commitment and professionalism, particularly Angela Pollard and Jeff Potter. Recent criticism focuses on poor communication, unethical fee practices, and a five-year motor vehicle claim marked by rising costs and complaints to the Legal Practice Board.

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.
