Julie Munday

Tagged solicitor Julie Munday

Extremely knowledgeable, everyone at Taylor and Emmett goes above and beyond to help. Julie Munday (family law) is absolutely fantastic, her experience in family law makes her the best lawyer you could hope for to represent you. She made sure I understood the family court process, what each outcome could be, helped me to understand all the documents and made sure I had statements that covered everything that I needed to benefit my side of the case. Her advice was always straightforward and informative and also compassionate (a lot of court professionals lack this skill, but family court can be very emotional and it helps to have someone on your side who is not only knowledgeable and experienced but also understanding of the emotional impact these cases can have on parents and family). I would highly recommend Taylor and Emmett and Julie Munday.

Anjani Fatania

Tagged solicitor Anjani Fatania

Looking for a solicitor to deal with my divorce finances was quite daunting. I decided to read the reviews for Fullers whilst searching online and was very impressed. Anjani Fatania was allocated to me and, from the moment we spoke on the phone, she made me feel incredibly comfortable and was very understanding of my needs. I was continuously kept up to date with my case and emails were responded to in a professional and courteous manner. I would like to congratulate Anjani and her team for their continuous professionalism

Angela Killa

Tagged solicitor Angela Killa

Over the past 3 years I have had representation from Angela on a complex family matter and my experience was exceptional. From the initial consultation to resolution of the case (3 years later), Angela demonstrated professionalism, expertise and genuine commitment to achieving the best outcome for me and my family. Throughout the process Angela provided clear and concise advice, keeping me informed at every step and ensuring that I understood all of my options. What truly stood out was her empathy and understanding towards my situation. Angela not only addressed the legal aspects of the case but also took into consideration the emotional impact it had on me. The level of genuine care from Angela made a significant difference during what has been a very challenging few years for me. I will forever be grateful for Angela’s dedication and unwavering support throughout the entire process. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, we were able to achieve the outcome that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone. Overall my experience with Angela was nothing short of excellent and I am truly thankful for her outstanding representation. Whilst I am relieved that this is all over, I will definitely miss her.
