Jamie-Lee Hunt

Tagged solicitor Jamie-Lee Hunt

Jamie-Lee Ripley of Taylor and Emmet worked with my husband and me on a lengthy and complex intestate inheritance matter. She was professional, highly efficient, and guided us step by step through the many legal issues that arose. The matter also involved the sale of a property, which was handled by Amanda Thornton. She was equally professional, efficient, and reassuring throughout the process. I would wholeheartedly endorse and recommend Taylor and Emmet to anyone seeking this particular service.

Helen Checketts

We instructed Alster Kelley to deal with our recent purchase. Helen Checketts was our solicitor and was excellent and responsive in her communication throughout. Buying a house can be stressful but she made it a pleasant experience! I would highly recommend both Helen and Alsters Kelley.

Charles Ling

Tagged solicitor Charles Ling

The trainee solicitor, Charles Ling was helpful, clear, professional and a pleasure to deal with. He managed the selling of a family, probate property which required considerable co-ordination of diverse parties within a buying and selling property chain. I'd like to thank Charles for his calm approach, whatever was in the offing, and his good humour throughout. I wish you all the very best in your career.

Stephanie Wilson

Tagged solicitor Stephanie Wilson

My brother passed away unexpectedly in the UK and I travelled from Australia to farewell him, representing my two sisters also living in Australia, and sort out his affairs. I only had a week and needed help as he left no will, had a house to sort and sell, and his affairs were a bit muddled. I was fortunate to find Stephanie Wilson at Hewitts who patiently worked through things with me over the ensuing several months, settling his debts, chasing up creditors and settling sale of his house. Stephanie was always level headed, courteous and prompt in finalising the estate. I am only sorry we weren't able to carry out more of our interactions face to face but given that, Stephanie made it as straightforward and pleasant as it could be in the circumstances. I would highly recommend the firm.
