Stated enclosures were not always enclosed with letters, etc. The service received was 'good' although frequent absences prevented ease of communication at times.

I am very happy with the help I have received from CWJ both recently and over the last few years. In all areas for which I have needed help and advice, I have always been completely satisfied. I absolutely recommend them.

Very distressing having to deal with my issues with no resolution. Very expensive, can't afford to carry on

The Best!!!

I had to resort to legal help and was guided by a friend to CWJ. Amanda Mehlin was the second person to help and, my goodness, did she help me. She, and her team has always been there with logical and excellent advice and assistance to help me in time of desperate need. Since then I have used CWJ for all of my legal requirements and they have always come up with the goods.

I can't speak highly enough of this company and unreservedly recommend them.

Long term litigation

5

I have been battling a very complex and hostile litigation relating to overseas investments and Amanda Mehlin has been instrumental in bringing this to a final close this year (2015). Her advice has been invaluable and when I have felt like "throwing in the towel" she has been astute and practical in her recommendations. Her prompt attention and the solid approach to some difficult situations has been invaluable and, I would even suggest, great value for money!
