What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Professionalism paired with plain-language explanations stands out as the most repeated theme in accounts of this Mandurah practice, with Johan de Klerk named regularly for his knowledgeable and solution-focused handling of matters. Wills, estate administration and business agreements feature prominently, and customers describe sensitive succession and family issues being managed with genuine care. Fees are characterised as reasonable and competitive, while turnaround is consistently described as prompt, easing anxiety during stressful periods. The supportive tone continues after completion, with after-care assistance frequently acknowledged.

Business clients report that contracts were prepared swiftly and the steps involved outlined without confusion, and a retired couple noted how quickly their wills and associated documents were updated. Being kept informed throughout a matter is a point raised often, as is the friendly and helpful conduct of the wider team, alongside sound guidance and suitable referrals on questions beyond the immediate engagement.

Estate planning, elder law and property transactions appear to form much of the advice sought. Johan de Klerk's name recurs in connection with each of these areas.

Johan De Klerk is very professional and friendly....his office is home based in a pleasant area not bustling with traffic or hard to find parking ....he made the experience very relaxed as we have never been to a Lawyer before ...I highly recommend Legacy Legal.

I would not recommend this man to my worst enemy. The issues are too numerous to mention. I found him to be uncooperative, unfriendly and non communicative. He made an already distressing time in my life even more so. He was very unpleasant to deal with. Well well, his response is very typical of the way he handled my mother’s estate… shall I say, extremely misleading at best but I wouldn’t have expected anything less. Unfortunately honesty is just not a priority for some people. Some are ethical and some are not. Trouble is, you expose a solicitor for who they are and you are threatened with defamation of character and they know you don’t have the money to present your case along with the facts. I am bowing out of this argument and not going to entertain his claims. All I can do is share my experience, which was extremely negative.

As a retired couple (Seniors) my wife and I recently decided to amend our Wills and other legal documents. We were lucky enough to deal with Johan de Klerk of Legacy Legal WA on these matters. Johan was extremely professional, understood our situation immediately and explained situations so true to life and simple to identify with. Johan dealt with our requirements in a caring and understanding manner with speed and efficiency, with legal "jargon " explained in people's language. We received a discount as Seniors on the excellent work he carried out. We would have no hesitation in recommending Johan, his extensive legal knowledge and the way this was conveyed to us with his pleasant and respectful manner, he was a pleasure to deal with. Thank you Johan. R and E Wannanup

Johan was a pleasure to deal with. We recently got our family Wills through Legal Legacy, Johan was by far the most competitive price wise and explained all the legalities thoroughly for us to understand. He was also flexible with times, working around my partner’s fifo roster. Overall, we are very happy with the professional service we received.
