Mixed Feedback
There are a few instances of negative feedback, with one client expressing dissatisfaction with the firm's handling of their case. Neil Fothergill was unhappy with the attitudes of the firm's staff and felt that they were unhelpful. Dallas Coyle, on the other hand, mentioned that they had to deal with multiple lawyers at the firm, but appreciates the affordable prices and willingness to listen to their concerns.
Defamatory Review
Leanne Stephens' review is particularly concerning, as she alleges that the firm misled her about the outcome of her case and failed to follow proper legal procedures. She also expresses frustration with the way the firm handled her appeal and claims that they fabricated a fabricated lie. Her review includes personal attacks on the firm's staff and refers to the Legal Services Commissioner.
