Kristy was able to have my matter sorted very promptly and I was happy with a fair result without costly court proceedings. Kristy worked very hard and tirelessly pursued the other side for a response and settlement.
Kristy will stay in my contact list, although hopefully I won’t need to call her in the near future! However if I or any friends require the services of a Family Lawyer, I would be confident to call Kristy.
Thank you, Kristy-Lee
I was always informed and reassured that the outcome of my case would be best for myself but most importantly moving forward with my children and my life.
Kristy-Lee has extensive experience and knowledge in regards to family law and her beautiful nature and considerate approach is what I will be forever thankful for.

From the very first phone call until the settlement, it has been seamless and courteous. I have dealt with Lawyers in the past and it has been frustrating to say the least .i.e. they never take my calls, take all day to get back to me, slow at responding etc…
…Thank you once again. Argy Property recommended Owen Hodge in the first instance and I will be recommending them to bring more business down your way!
I felt supported with my choices
Thank you to Kristy and Sarah for their work and support based on their deep experience and understanding of my case and the legal system. Not only were they fair financially but I was briefed and clear on all my options and felt supported with my choices. Thank you to you both during these hard times for me, and for securing the best results under the circumstances.
