I can’t recommend Connect Family Law highly enough. They made what could have been a really stressful separation and property title transfer feel completely seamless. The whole process was handled with so much professionalism, care, and support. I always felt informed and looked after every step of the way. Their communication was clear, prompt, and compassionate, and I truly felt like they had my best interests at heart. I’m so grateful for their guidance and would absolutely recommend them to anyone going through a similar process.

Connect Family Law, particularly Michelle and Francie-Anne, delivered a concise, informative presentation to our company. Their expertise was evident, and the session provided valuable insights. It was a great resource, and we highly recommend their services.

Nothing but amazing - Michelle and Francie-Anne popped in for a training session with our team and the presentation provided an insightful overview of key topics in family law and how it can relate to our business. The information was delivered clearly and professionally and it was also great to bounce the information off of each other from both perspectives of the businesses and how we can assist each others roles when dealing with mutual clients. Highly recommend these guys for any Family Law matters.

After a difficult separation, following over 7 years of marriage, I was delighted to find comfort in the professionalism, compassion and diligence, displayed by the team at Connect Family Law. My ex husband and I agreed to enlist Connect Family Law for the sale/Conveyancing needs of our joint $1.2m home in the Mallee region. We were looked after by the owner/managing director, Michelle Oates alongside Jo Zappia, who also specialises in Conveyancing matters. The first thing that was most important to me was that my ex partner and I were treated equally, fairly and in accordance with the legislation applicable to us. Their service in this area exceeded my expectations. I felt that they always contacted us both, provided honest, professional and open communication throughout the process and I never felt that one party was kept more informed than the other. Jo managed most of our needs and was always expedient and understanding. She provided reassurance and compassion when I needed it, whilst remaining impartial - which is something I didn’t realise how much I needed during such an emotional time. I felt they always checked and triple checked their work and prioritised issues that arose with the purchasers solicitor in a timely manner, to ensure no delays to our settlement date. I felt like the process was explained to me in simple terms, especially during times of overwhelm and that none of my queries ever felt like too much of a hassle. I would highly recommend this team for any Family Law or Conveyancing needs.
