“I would recommend that anyone going through a divorce in South Australia go and see Adelaide Family Law, I couldn’t be happier with the outcome in my case. My property settlement matter was difficult and complex. Lisa Gough at Adelaide Family Law is excellent at what she does, highly skilled, very thorough and I had every confidence in her expertise from beginning to end. She was also compassionate and took the time to really listen to my concerns.”
“The team at Adelaide Family Law were fantastic in helping me deal with my property settlement. I had Lisa as my solicitor and she was honest and straight to the point with her advice and provided realistic expectations. I was able to come to an agreement with my ex within a couple of months and it cost me a lot less than I expected in legal fees”.
“I would speak very highly of Michael Ormerod. Michael completed my divorce paperwork with me in a very timely and efficient way. Michael has a very friendly manner and answered my questions with detailed knowledge and realism to the situation.”
“I have dealt with Pam Murray and the broader Adelaide Family Law team, through my complex family law situation. I’ve have found them to be professional & understanding through what was a very difficult period for me. Pam’s advice and support during this period was very comforting and ultimately produced an outcome that was in the best interests of both my children & myself. I highly recommend Pam and the team at Adelaide Family Law.”
