Delivered with care and compassion

Katy showed care, compassion and professionalism through the whole process. She was informative as to the process and everything was transparent and clear. I valued the empathy Katy showed whilst also delivering on the legal side. I cannot recommend Katy highly enough.

An excellent and exceptionally capable solicitor.

Katy is a wonderful Solicitor. She is measured, wise and steadfast. She has been a great support to me and I have felt entirely safe in her hands. I will always be grateful for her representing me and my children and for putting our safety, best interests and protection at the forefront of her counsel. She fronted the battle in one of the most challenging times I have endured in my life and took the huge burden i was carrying and took it into her own hands. She shielded me from barrages of unwanted contact and was discerning in what she shared with me. Katy was never rocked by the many challenges we faced and she spoke truth in times that I was tossed in the sea of uncertainty. She also boldly represented me on an occassion an injustice was being served and fought for fairness and common sense to be heard. I hope I do not find myself in need of a solicitor again, however if i do, i will not hesitate to instruct Katy.

I’m so grateful to Katy at Harbour Family Law. She helped me with a very difficult divorce, which I could not have managed without her. Her thoughtful, calm and measured approach was exactly what was needed at an emotional time, and where things had reached a dead end. Katy acted with a clarity and fairness that meant we could resolve the problems we were having in finalising our divorce. I would highly recommend Katy to anyone going through a similar process.

Divorce is never a pleasant experience and no matter how hard you try and keep it amicable, negotiations can can quickly deteriorate and costs escalate, especially when the other parties solicitor is being unreasonable. Katy Zikking at Harbour Family Law kept it all together, prevented it from going off track and steered it to an acceptable and amicable conclusion.
