Our Testimonials
I really appreciate your hard work Kristen to get me divorced.
It was a pleasure dealing with Kate and we were extremely happy with her advise.
Kate and staff were attentive, patient, and knowledgeable.
I really appreciated the courteous attention to my requirements – and also my attempts at levity in amongst it all.
Kate was professional & very competent. A delight to deal with.
Keep up caring for your clients. It makes the biggest
difference for those looking for professionals in your field.
Thanks Mitchells for sorting out our estate planning.
Kate Muller is extremely professional in her dealings with us at all times.
I am impressed with the basic fact sheets on your website to explain your range of services & FAQ’s in layman’s’ terms. Also, we have dealt fairly exclusively with Bryan and Kate and offer our thanks for their professionalism at all times for both personal and commercial matters.
Going through a divorce can be a much daunting experience for a first timer, especially if you have an uncooperative (ex) partner and topping it off with an international pandemic situation. Kristen and team were very helpful and made the whole process very smooth. Kristen, took the time to answer my numerous questions and queries throughout the process. In the end we achieved the result that we wanted. Thanks again to Kristen and team.
We highly recommend Pete Galea and the team here at Mitchells Solicitors. Pete and the team are very down to Earth, they explain things so that it’s easy to understand. Can I say, they’re very responsive which is an absolute blessing compared to a lot of other places. Very professional.
