Excellent service and very efficient service. Personally would highly recommend Melanie Hammer, an honest, reassuring, knowledgeable and efficient solicitor.

Divorce
I made the decision to use Melanie Hamer for my divorce proceedings because i needed the best solicitor to fight my case.
The support Melanie gave me was thorough and a great comfort to me during this emotional process.
Melanie expertly steered me every step of the way and gave me calm professional advice , so i felt confident in her managing my case. Her superior knowledge of the law and the lawful process, out shines all opposition.
I am grateful to the support of the whole of her team , even the payment staff, who i became on first names with and although an expensive process, using Melanie and her team turned out well worth the expense for the outcome the team achieved for me.

Expert advice, warmly delivered
Melanie was recommended to me as a leading expert in divorce and family law. She combines professionalism, efficiency, and responsiveness with being personally supportive.
Melanie listened carefully to my personal priorities and concerns. She has been consistently clear in her distillation of issues and options. I found her expert advice to be practical and helpful and always left our meetings reassured. My confidence in Melanie was a great comfort during a difficult time and though I am delighted to see the divorce end, I will miss her warmth and humour. I cannot recommend Melanie highly enough.

Divorce services provided
Melanie was extremely helpful throughout the process. She provided me with information that a previous lawyer didn’t even know about. This provided me with security throughout the divorce process. She keeps up to date with the case law and is completely on your side. I will continue to recommend Melanie to anyone who needs the same services as I did.

Highly recommended for family legal challenges.
I would highly recommend Melanie for any legal family challenges. I have felt continually reassured and supported over many years. Melanie has the ability to be honest and realistic while providing solutions and dissolving tension.

Professional customer care and service personified
A family friend and several acquaintances recommended Melanie Hamer at Wendy Hopkins and I fully endorse their opinions as I am indebted to Melanie and her Team for taking on my case. I was unfortunately positioned by another Family Lawyer in a rather precarious position just weeks ahead of my FDR. It became apparent that my former legal representation were positioning to withdraw their support and would not meet to face-to-face to discuss strategy. Despite the complexity and longevity of the case, Melanie and her Team were able to reassure me that they could provide support and more importantly prepare for the FDR. At extreme short notice with 12 lever arch files to digest, Melanie and the Team reacted swiftly and successfully represented me at FDR. There were further legal quality gates that had to be navigated, yet the dedication, professionalism and competence demonstrated by Melanie and her Team ensured that we were fully prepared for Counsel briefings and were consequently able to deliver at Court. Melanie is an excellent listener, shows empathy for her clients and respected my opinions. Strategizing together was personally paramount throughout my litigation and Melanie had faith, belief and trust in my approach which was so important. Reassuring, tenacious, professional, knowledgeable, engaging and being prepared to meet in person were several of the attributes I appreciated from working with Wendy Hopkins Family Law Practice. On reflection, I wish I had contracted Melanie and The Team from the outset of my case and I fully recommend them if you wish to work collaboratively, effectively and with a complete professional who is compassionate and reassuring

Professional and knowledgeable
A professional and knowledgeable family law practice. With electronic communication as it is, the client does not need to be based in the near vicinity of WHFLP to work with them. Administrative staff are hardworking, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. I worked with Melanie Hamer who supported me, protected me from a difficult husband, responded within 48hrs to my communications and had a great legal network to tap into when other matters arose that were not directly related to family law. She has a lovely sense of humour that helped diffuse some of my anxiety (not all). Chris Sadler is unflappable and an asset to the organisation; I feel she is an assistant one cannot be without.

You have been amazing
You have been amazing (I said so when I filled in the feedback survey on Tuesday). I doubt that I would have come out of this so well, either financially or psychologically without your help and support.
