Great positive experience from staff and reliable legal advice

5

Right from my initial contact with Frettens, matters were always clearly explained and confirmed with written documentation. Any action which needed attention was handled in a timely manner and all urgent matters were swiftly dealt with. Every member of the team with whom I came into contact, were not just approachable but proactive and I felt I was given professional, sound, and helpful advice. Any concerns I did have were always quickly and fully answered.
Throughout, I felt I was respected as a client and this gave me confidence I was in safe hands with Frettens. I can certainly recommend them and shall have no hesitation in using their services in the future.

I have used Frettens for many years for conveyancing , employment law, probate and litigation. They are hands down, the most fantastic team of experts in their field. If you have a cause worth fighting for, you'll want Michelle Hayter on your side. She's fierce, fair and (super) friendly in equal measures. Thank you Michelle, you litigation superstar!
