What our clients say

Kat could not have been more helpful, valuable, professional or friendly. I could not have asked for a better experience in going through my settlement agreement than the service I received from Kat and she was the reason we achieved an outcome far more beneficial to me than I expected. In our conversations Kat was very clear about the process, she did not rush me through any of my questions or decision-making and I genuinely felt like it was important to her that I got the best outcome possible. I would not hesitate at all to work with Kat again or to recommend her to anyone else who would need legal advice. Thank you, Kat!

Residential Conveyancing

Terms and conditions, a necessity to protect your business and your customers. We needed to develop new T&C's to reflect our current operations. In this past this has been complex, expensive and time consuming. Including difficult too understand legal jargon and language that is often included in T&C's. As we operate with transparency is was very important that our T&C's are clear and easy for our customers to understand and agree to. Right from the beginning Phil removed the complexity and jargon, resulting in brand new T&Cs which are customer friendly. He made the whole process easy, efficient and painless! Thank you Phil!
