Would definitely recommend michael Horne, he was very quick on answering my questions regarding disputes at home. He made me feel at ease that confirm that I'm going down the right bath to solve the problems. Would definitely contact him again.

A family friend and several acquaintances recommended Melanie Hamer at Wendy Hopkins and I fully endorse their opinions as I am indebted to Melanie and her Team for taking on my case. I was unfortunately positioned by another Family Lawyer in a rather precarious position just weeks ahead of my FDR. It became apparent that my former legal representation were positioning to withdraw their support and would not meet to face-to-face to discuss strategy. Despite the complexity and longevity of the case, Melanie and her Team were able to reassure me that they could provide support and more importantly prepare for the FDR. At extreme short notice with 12 lever arch files to digest, Melanie and the Team reacted swiftly and successfully represented me at FDR. There were further legal quality gates that had to be navigated, yet the dedication, professionalism and competence demonstrated by Melanie and her Team ensured that we were fully prepared for Counsel briefings and were consequently able to deliver at Court. Melanie is an excellent listener, shows empathy for her clients and respected my opinions. Strategizing together was personally paramount throughout my litigation and Melanie had faith, belief and trust in my approach which was so important. Reassuring, tenacious, professional, knowledgeable, engaging and being prepared to meet in person were several of the attributes I appreciated from working with Wendy Hopkins Family Law Practice. On reflection, I wish I had contracted Melanie and The Team from the outset of my case and I fully recommend them if you wish to work collaboratively, effectively and with a complete professional who is compassionate and reassuring

I cannot be more grateful to Lindsay, throughout a very distressing time. To say the least I would recommend her 100%! Her conduct was not only very professional, but kind and down to earth. She made my family feel valued and supported. Lindsays communication with us was constant, replying by text, when she was unable to speak directly, giving reassurance when needed. She communicated everything we needed to know, throughly & made sure everything was understood, at every point of her service. At no point did we feel that there were any concerns of neglect, towards us or the situation we were dealing with. Lindsay remained focused and gave us peace of mind. This meant so much & was so important. Thank you!
