I engaged MCG to represent myself in a property settlement. Given I was charged for a Senior Lawyer, I expect someone who clearly worked to ensure the best outcome for his client. Not the case, new Lawyer who has identifies several areas ignored to date at my expense.
MCG Legal were great to work with, efficient and friendly. Big thank you to Rikkilee, my main point of contact throughout the whole process!
I cannot recommend Emily highly enough! From start to finish, she was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of my marriage separation. I had seen and spoken to other lawyers before, who left me feeling confused and a bit silly, struggling to understand what was ahead of me. Emily, however, took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense, making a very overwhelming process so much more manageable. She was always on my side, even when she disagreed with some of my choices, and her honesty, support, and guidance were invaluable. I truly don’t know what I would have done without her. Emily is professional, compassionate, and simply fabulous—anyone going through family law matters would be so lucky to have her on their side.

MCG Legal was very helpful and professional. Emily Dorney was my solicitor and I was fortunate to have her representing me. I would strongly recommend MCG Legal if you are in need of legal help or advice.
We had an excellent experience working with Matt and Jade and couldn’t recommend them more highly. From the outset, they were professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain every step of the process, kept us well informed, and were always prompt in responding to our questions. Matt and Jade demonstrated outstanding attention to detail and genuine care for achieving the best possible outcome. Their expertise and calm, reassuring manner made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well managed. We are extremely grateful for their support and would not hesitate to engage them again or recommend them to anyone seeking high-quality legal representation.
I couldn’t recommend Matt and Emily from MCG Legal highly enough. From the very first conversation, they made a stressful situation feel manageable. They were calm, honest, and incredibly clear in explaining every step so I always understood what was happening and what my options were. Their professionalism is matched by how genuinely they care. They listened, supported me through the tougher moments, and handled everything with a level of detail and confidence that gave me real peace of mind. If you’re going through any family law matter and want a team that is not only skilled but truly invested in helping you get the best outcome, Matt and Emily are the ones you want in your corner. Thank you both for everything — I’m extremely grateful.
