I had a hour meeting to go over my needs, the meeting was 40 minutes. They said they would email the following Monday with details yo move forward with them and I never heard anything from them. I ended up with another law firm and found that the information I have been given by this firm was incorrect. I would not recommend them for any service.
We would like to express our gratitude for the assistance and professional advice through our very difficult time. Samuel has been truely amazing, without his guidance and legal expert advice, we wouldn't have managed thus far - we cannot thank him enough. Hannah too has been lovely setting up appointments etc. 😁 I would highly recommend contacting this firm if you're needing expert legal assistance, and we think the pricing is very reasonable also.
I would like to extend my appreciation to Hannah and her team at Australian Family Lawyers on the Brisbane Bayside for their incredible support and expertise during my recent family law matter. Hannah was referred to me by a friend and from our very first email exchange, her professionalism, diligence, and accommodating nature were evident. Navigating life-altering changes can be incredibly challenging but Hannah provided the support and guidance I needed to feel reassured throughout the process. Hannah was always approachable and patient, taking the time to explain every step clearly and thoroughly. She made sure no question went unanswered and was consistently quick to respond to emails. Whether it was a phone call or an in-person meeting, Hannah’s calm and understanding nature helped me feel at ease in what was a stressful situation. Her extensive knowledge in family law instilled a strong sense of confidence and trust, which was invaluable during this time. I highly recommend reaching out to Hannah for any family law matters. She is truly exceptional at what she does.
Australian Family Lawyers came highly recommended to me by a friend, and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others. The advice I received was spot on and conveyed to me in a way that I could understand which enabled me to make educated decisions about my future. Hannah was knowledgeable, professional, and calm; taking me through each stage in a measured and clear manner so that I felt safe and comfortable that I was doing all the right things and that the outcome of my issue would be fair. Finding a path through a difficult situation was never going to be easy, but Hannah made it as simple and pain-free as possible.
Hannah was a pillar of stability and calm, considered advice during one of the most stressful experiences of my life. She helped navigate all the hurdles with utmost professionalism, but also a level of care and compassion that I never expected. I ended up trusting her implicitly and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend AFL…’cos I’m really hoping I never need their services again, but would want Hannah in my corner if I did.
I was lucky enough to have Hannah Robinson as my Lawyer. She is caring, honest and open about what's required and supported me even when she didn't need to at times checking in. I had a difficult case for her to manager and she took it on without a challenge. Thank you Hannah. All the best.
I was put in contact with Aaron Wilson in the Brisbane section of Australian Family Law in July 2023 to represent and assist me with my marrage seperation. From day 1 Aaron and the team have provided prompt and clear advice on how to deal with a difficult and stressful situation. Aaron recently represented me at magistrates court for a protection order case related to seperation and again provided sound advice to reach and acceptable outcome and reduce delays in finalising seperation settlement. I would recommend Australian Family Law Brisbane to anyone unfortunately in a similar situation.
