CLIENT STORIES

What our clients say

"

We have dealt with Neil and his office for many years now, he helped us with the purchase of our first home in 2010, and later with other property purchases, also helping with writing of our Wills, giving advice on family law with my husband and myself insuring we both were protected if our relationship was ever to end as we have a fairly complex portfolio and a few children. the advice and recommendations given in consult have always been for the benefit of both parties and never one sided as they openly said when we first had things drawn up they are representing us both and need to insure we both are aware how to protect ourselves if something was to ever happen, that remark was what had my husband and me both return to this firm, in the past we have had gender bias from other professionals some going so far as to suggest my husband tries not to include me on any of our assets incase I was to run off with another man. They have also helped with disputes on pay from an employer, so my advice is if you want someone who knows their stuff and can represent you with most of your legal needs consider them.

—Coo'ra brae

They are always helpful. They make you feel confident and they care.

—Stephen Psaras

As a first time home buyer, I was nervous about the procedures and red tape, and the very real possibility of getting it wrong. I'm so glad I worked with them — they walked me gently through the process, made sure it was all done right and made the whole thing very easy and stress free. I will always be grateful to them, and I'd recommend them to anybody who wants to be dealt with as a person rather than a case number.

I have had the privilege of working with Neill from Creswick McCarthy Solicitors in regards to a litigation matter which was quite lengthy and detailed. Neill was professional and honest the whole way through, and he kept me well informed about the process and updated me on the litigation regularly. My case was particularly stressful and thanks to the staff at Creswick McCarthy, especially Neill, I was able to relax knowing that it was being dealt with in a timely and competent manner. The costs of the process were fully explained up front and they were extremely reasonable and fair. The matter was resolved with a favourable outcome for me, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Always very helpful we have used these solicitors approx 5 times for property, and legal issues .very happy and would highly recommend them .

—Jacqueline Naumovski

I recently had the pleasure of working with Warren Creswick and Lisa, and I can confidently say their service was outstanding from start to finish.

Both Warren and Lisa were highly professional, approachable, and extremely knowledgeable. They worked seamlessly as a team, ensuring every detail was managed with care and precision. Their communication was excellent throughout the process, always keeping me updated and available to answer any questions.

I would highly recommend Warren Creswick and Lisa to anyone looking for a reliable and experienced team. Their service and results speak for themselves.

—Matt Borg

Over the years they have quietly, efficiently and with great attention to detail helped us with numerous property purchases and commercial lease and business sale transactions. Occasionally we have had the need to be represented in Courts and Tribunals and have always been pleased with the outcomes. The team is always prepared to listen and thoroughly explain the process. Warren is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of law most notably in property and business and has a laser focus and attention to detail. Both Terri and Lisa have a positive can-do attitude and professional and friendly approach and nothing is too difficult for them.

—Paul and Karen Hepplewhite

I cannot thank Neill enough for his professionalism, knowledge of the law, and for seeing my innocence right from the start. He fought for what was right. To this day I fly the Creswick & McCarthy Solicitors & Barristers flag in appreciation.
