I have engaged Kannangara Thomson Partner Brent Selwyn and his team for numerous pieces of work.
They are highly responsive, transparent and thorough in all their undertakings.
I highly recommend them for anyone after advice particularly in the trusts, estates and wills area.
Amazing lawyers. Nothing is ever a drama to explain, and they are very approachable when you need extra information!
This legal firm has a team of very experienced and very capable solicitors.
I went there to talk about some business matters and was very pleasantly surprised at how well I was received. With plenty of car parking it's a short 1 min walk to the lift or stairs. The reception is on level 2.
Give this firm some very careful consideration should you wish legal advice. I am positive you will not be disappointed
Great people to deal with, super efficient and professional advice, go straight to the point and get things done, well worth the money spent.
Very impressed by this company. Prompt, professional and friendly. I have had some challenging experiences with lawyers and this company is refreshing. Thank you Brent and Craig.
Really awesome company to deal with! I highly recommend Sally & Steven as they have done an amazing job helping us sell and buy homes with limited timeframes.
