Thank you Major Family Law

Stacy Williams at Major Family Law and her team with Louise Thain guided me steadfastly through the trials and complexities of my divorce with brilliant expert professional knowledge and a calm assured clarity of understanding and communication for which I am hugely grateful.
I feel very fortunate to have had such fantastic strong representation, bringing a difficult case to a positive conclusion with the right outcome.

Amazing outcome from a minor but complex motoring case.

I received two minor motoring offences at the same time that had me very worried. Jonathan Dunkley from Major Family Law was instrumental in spotting errors in the case, advising me of my best course of action and coming up with a strategy to deal with it. He ultimately represented me so that the case had an outcome that I could have only wished for at the start of a very stressful time. I can't thank him enough.

Impressive Exceptional Free Service!!
At very short notice i had a a free 45min session with Calvin Walker today about my marriage to my husband of 42yrs announcing out of the blue he can no longer live with me.
Calvin was calming and articulate in explaining the entire process of Separating / Divorce & Finance etc and everything else to consider when faced with this life changing experience.
He was considerate in his approach and detailed in what to be aware of and shared knowledge of all the things to way up when i really didn't have the headspace or the energy.

Thank you so so much Calvin for helping me navigate this hideous time in my life!!

Also, many thanks to Helen Charlton who took my call this morning and set up the call with Calvin.
very much appreciated.

Keep up the great work Calvin!!

Unquestionably An Outsanding Law Firm

I can't thank Jonathan Dunkley at Major Family Law enough for his outstanding support and expertise during my divorce. From our very first meeting, Jonathan demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and a deep understanding of family law. He made the entire process much more manageable by explaining every step in detail, always being available to answer my questions, and consistently providing clear and practical advice.

Jonathan’s attention to detail and strategic approach were invaluable. His calm and reassuring manner helped ease the stress and anxiety associated with the divorce process. It was evident that he genuinely cared about achieving the best possible result for me.

I highly recommend Jonathan Dunkley and the team at Major Family Law to anyone seeking legal support in family matters. Their expertise, commitment, and client-centered approach make them a top choice for anyone going through a difficult time."

Separation agreement

Our daughter experienced a break up with her husband and required some immediate legal advice and support to ensure that she would receive the appropriate separation agreement to provide support for her and two young children. I knew Jonathan professionally through my commercial dealings with his previous firm and therefore suggested that he be contacted to provide the necessary advice and support. He worked closely with our daughter over the next few months and despite the level of complexity he achieved a very satisfactory outcome providing her with the financial support required. Jonathan is a highly professional lawyer who provides clear advice with options setting out the steps to be taken to achieve the desired result. I can recommend Jonathan as a truly supportive advisor when one is having to deal with a very difficult set of circumstances.

Free consultation with Anya

I thought the consultation regarding my imminent divorce and child access/finances associated with this was excellent. Anya made me feel at ease and gave very good advise. I came away from the consultation feeling much better about the situation and will definitely be in contact again regarding how to move forward with the assistance of Major Family Law.

I was represented in respect of my financial separation and in applying for a child arrangement order. Anya Harrison was excellent through the lengthy process, always on hand for any questions and advice.

Successfully negotiated a good settlement and shared custody of my children.

Highly recommended.

I don't think I can put into words how much Kalem Grant helped me in my family court matter.

From the offset Kalem took time to understand my situation and suggest a plan of how to move forward. Kalem was very professional, supported me in such a sensitive matter ,and I felt I could trust him completely.

With the work Kalem put together, we achieved the right outcome for my family and I will be forever grateful.

If anyone is ever in need of a family court matter representation, rest assured Kalem will fight for the right outcome.

Thank you again.

Kindest regards
Leanne
