I called for advice. I was told I would receive a follow up email where I could upload any info I had. Then I would receive a call. I received a text reminder then the call promptly when it was scheduled. Stephanie was so kind and personable. So keen to help me. She even gave me a second phone call as she wanted to look into my issue further & make sure she was giving me the correct advice. Highly recommend this professional team. So glad I found them. Many thanks- Tania

My need for support from McDonald Murholme came at a time when I was also focussing on a couple of other personal issues - both significant but unrelated. The support I received from Alan, Stephanie and the team was incredible - I felt supported at every step of the process and was 100% confident that the matter was being dealt with effectively whilst I addressed other things. Most importantly, however, the team were easy to talk to and kept me fully up to date with progress. Hopefully I'll not have a need to use them again but, if I do, I absolutely would NOT hesitate! Last thing for me to say - THANK YOU McDonald Murholme!

Outstanding lawyers! I contacted McDonald Murholme to review some legal documents. The team there were super supportive, explained everything, where fully upfront about pricing and different legal options that I had. Their team worked quickly and I was really blow away by their thoroughness, thoughtfulness, dedication, and professionalism. They helped me get a way better outcome than I would have had without seeking their help. Can't speak highly enough about my experience.
