What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Employment disputes, personal injury claims, immigration applications and estate planning form the core of the work described in feedback for this Brisbane practice, whose solicitors are consistently characterised as professional and compassionate. Clarity of advice is a theme that comes up often, with reviewers noting that complex processes are broken down step by step so they remain aware of what is happening at each stage. Solicitors Justine Matthews and Alexandra Jarrett are repeatedly acknowledged for their responsiveness, dedication and warmth during stressful periods, including one account of support maintained over a holiday break.

Luke is credited with knowledge and availability while handling an employment issue, Leanne for steering a visa application to a successful grant while managing both employer and employee sides, and Megan for persistent advocacy across a lengthy personal injury matter arising from a motor vehicle accident, assisted by legal assistant Shannon. Effective communication, genuine care and strong problem-solving are mentioned time and again, along with efficient handling of legal documents. What stands out across the feedback is representation that feels supportive and well organised from the first conversation through to resolution.

I couldn't be more grateful for Raiah’s help. She took the stress out of a complicated situation, kept me informed and achieved a great outcome. Highly recommended!

7.5 years later to get a mere 42000$ as I would advise you to go somewhere that will put in the effort and not take half of the money when advise a 24000 bill. To me very lazy and me and my sister put in most of the work. Id still be waiting if my sister did not help nothing but a long stuff around of 4 different lawyers then finally Megan a fake friend rushed and then demanded half the money. Disgrace

I highly recommend Hall Payne Lawyers for their professionalism, effective communication, strong problem-solving skills, and genuine compassion. When you’re facing a storm in life, it’s incredibly difficult to prepare for the unknown ahead. You need a trusted copilot to help navigate those challenging circumstances. For me, Justine Matthews was exactly that. I’m truly grateful for her support and feel fortunate to have had her guidance in achieving a positive outcome. I truly can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve done, Justine!

Luke and his team were great to have on my side whilst dealing with a recent employment issue. He is extremely knowledgeable, communicated everything very clearly and was extremely available when responding to messages and emails during what was a reasonably stressful time for me. I cannot recommend Hall Payne highly enough!

I would like to acknowledge the professionalism along with the above and beyond legal guidance and assistance from Megan S my Principal Solicitor for my personal injury case as a result of Motor vehicle crash on my way to work. It has been a long & windy rough road the past six years to say the least. Megan and her legal assistant Shannon M helped encourage me to keep my chin up on all the bad days I experienced as well. I highly recommend Megan S as she treats you like a person that matters, not just another client. Thank you so much Megan and Shannon for helping reach the light at the end of the tunnel, very appreciated.

I was referred to Hall Payne through my Union. The support Alexandra gave me was brilliant. All of our meetings were done via phone call yet were so thorough and clear. I knew exactly what was happening the whole time and when I didn't, Alex was extremely open to answering any questions and very accomodating to my emotions. I would highly recommend Hall Payne, especially Alexandra for anyone who needs assistance but specifically if a young woman is in need of an approachable and understanding ear.
