What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Ballantine Law has earned a strong following in Bundaberg, and the feedback often centres on a professional yet personable approach. More than one customer describes property settlements being completed promptly and with close attention to detail, including one client who completed three settlements over eighteen months and noted that communication continued throughout each process. Purchases of first homes, estate planning and general legal work come up often, with buyers praising the clarity of explanations and the speed of responses to queries, while others mention that updates arrived without prompting.

Amelia receives particular thanks for going beyond what was required on legal issues and for guiding clients through unfamiliar processes with patience.

I just wanted to reach out and say thank you so much for all of your hard work on the sale of 2 High Street and 20 Bush Road. I’m honestly so grateful I connected my clients with you and your team, I truly don’t believe these would have settled without your dedication and persistence. Your effort and attention to detail certainly haven’t gone unnoticed. You are absolutely my number one solicitor firm, and I will continue referring you moving forward without hesitation. Thank you again for everything, I really appreciate all that you do. Take care, and I look forward to working together again on the next one.

My partner and I have just purchased our first home. We had absolutely no idea what we were doing or how the process worked. The team at Ballantine were super transparent, their communication was thorough and fast. They were never behind the 8 ball, we heard about updates immediately, our queries were actioned or answered straight away. We felt so secure and trusting in their hands and we could not have made a better decision. When things got stressful Hannah reassured us and tackled the cause of our stress quickly and with a massive amount of professionalism. We are so grateful for the team at Ballantine!

Highly recommend Ballantine Law. We came in to create our wills, and Amelia was very helpful, taking the time to ensure that we understood the implications of our choices and the processes involved. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed, which was especially important given the significance of the decisions we were making. We left feeling very well-informed and confident in the services provided by Ballantine Law.

Absolutely appalling law firm. Do yourself & your loved ones a favour and stay away from this firm. All they care about is how they can increase your bill. How much money they can milk out of you. They have no idea what they are doing & when they make a mistake they expect the client to pay for it no matter the cost. They are never wrong, it’s always the client. I would hate to see anyone go through what my family endured from this incompetent firm. Attention The owner Ballantine Law. No you won’t find my name on your records, that’s because you acted for a family member of mine and I witnessed first hand what you put them through. The way you act in your business is completely different to the way you act in your reviews. You don’t care about your clients you don’t show any compassion. All you thrive for is money!!!! How much you can milk out of your clients. Maybe you need to have a good hard look at the way yourself and your staff conduct themselves.

Truly deserving - 5 star rating. The Estate Planning and associated appointments of Powers Of Attorney etc were explained in a comprehensive yet easy-to-understand manner. Plenty of time was afforded - options and scenarios explored fully and you never felt rushed. I would highly recommend this firms services.
