What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Lena stands out in account after account for her work as a conveyancer, handling purchases and sales with care and fighting firmly for the client's position. Peta and Hayley are named for steering people through complicated matters with patience and plain explanations, Tynan for meticulous, professional attention to a commercial lease, and Lindy for overseeing an investment property sale with communication that went well beyond what was expected. When an administrator was appointed to manage a relative's affairs, the solicitor involved took time to explain each stage and answered repeated questions without impatience, and the same consideration carried through to the handling of wills and estate administration after a death.

Longstanding clients speak of returning year after year, including one who has relied on the firm since 2013 for migration-related matters, and describe the reassurance that comes from that continuity. Reviewers frequently note how approachable and supportive every member of staff proved to be, and professional conduct across the wider team is raised again and again. Conveyancing, estate work and commercial leasing are the areas most often discussed.

Both Peta and Hayley were fantastic to deal with, and assisted greatly with a complex case. I would highly recommend both of them. Thank you both.

Very poor. Andrew did not provide a level of service that was promised and the quality of language used In my legal documents was appalling. I did seek a second opinion and engaged another legal firm to assist in rectifying the costly errors. BJT may be very good at general legal practice, however these expensive mistakes were due to lack of detail and poor quality. It's important to seek out a firm that has the experience and competent staff to handle your matters correctly.

I’ve been working with Tynan on a commercial lease matter and he has been incredible. He has attention to detail, listens to your concerns and is extremely professional. His advice and support has been non the less. Highly recommend!

Lena is a fantastic conveyancer and person. She’s willing to do what she can to help and assist and she does it wonderfully. Everyone we spoke to at BJT was immensely helpful. If you’re ever looking for a great conveyancer, I will always suggested Lena Charnley.
