I worked with Stacey and Nicole on a family law matter. They consistently gave me honest and practical expert advice, and worked with me to get the best possible outcomes for my family and I through some extremely difficult times. I could not recommend them highly enough.

Coulter Legal were able to provide a wonderful service to me during a divorce and difficult property settlement. Having Jade, Theresa, Brigid and Natasha work through the trying circumstances that this was, I was kept informed of the negotiations and strategy required to find a resolution. A very professional and experienced team that were passionate about looking after my interest. I would have no hesitation recommending Coulter Legal for any legal assistance that you may require. We’ll done Team!!

I’ve now used Coulter Legal for the second time to represent a family member, and once again, they delivered an outstanding experience. Theresa was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. Her communication was spot on—clear, timely, and she always made sure I was fully up to speed with everything happening. That level of professionalism and care really made a difference during what can often be a stressful time. The team at Coulter Legal consistently provides great legal support and, most importantly, they get the job done every time. I would 100% recommend them to any of my friends and family without hesitation.

James Maxwell my lawyer from Coulter Legal, literally gave me a new life ! After I separated from my husband I left it a little while before starting divorce and settlement proceedings as I felt I need to tidy a few things prior to beginning the process. From the moment I contacted James I knew I was in good and safe hands. James and his team were amazing from the word go! Everything was done with outstanding professionalism, nothing was overlooked and no stone unturned. James was always available to talk to when necessary too, as there were times when my stress levels were quite high. My case was also handled with dignity and the utmost care and a fair outcome was achieved. I will be eternally grateful to James Maxwell, at least now I can smile, relax and enjoy life !! Thankyou so much James 😃

We recently used Stefan Manche from Coulter Legal to update our wills. He was excellent with the advice he gave us with our complicated wills. He spent time with our family explaining to each of them in a very straightforward fashion how it all worked and they now have a clear understanding. We would highly recommend Stefan for his professional advice to anyone needing their wills updated.

My experience of using Coulter Legal has been very positive. They have been clear, open and great communications with how to be executors of my mother's will. The handling of all matters, sale of the family home, selling of shares and other requirements has been extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Coulter Legal.
