Melanie from CLM has helped many of my clients and helped in personal matters. Very professional and knowledgeable.
Went for a signature on a statutory declaration for a sponsorship form. The lady in the reception and the lawyer both were welcoming, prompt and had a nice smiley face. It was a great experience. Thanks for the great service.
Had to see the solicitor urgently while visiting from out of town. Fantastic service, very accommodating and understanding.
Absolutely would NOT recommend this lawyer firm. Don't trust their estimates. Don't trust their interpretations of your words. Follow everything you say up with an email. They will turn against you. What was once a simple open and close Contracting Out, turned into me walking away. Pissed away thousands of dollars to get exactly nothing.
Unfortunately a pack of liars and decietful sharks. Would never recommend as they lie to get their way... They also do work not asked of then charge for it and then lie to cover it up. Serious misconduct from this company. Unfortunately staff feel unable to speak the truth and are coerced to lie for the sake of their jobs
