What our clients say about us:
“Thank you for helping to keep my financial + mental health together”
“Thank you so very much for your legal expertise and advice during a difficult time. Please also thank all of the staff at FGD who worked on the case”.
“Thank you once again! You are truly THE BEST”
“This matter was daunting and stressful for the whole family but we very quickly developed great confidence in his expertise, skill, advice and support offered by Mr Bak…”
“The safety and long term welfare of our daughter and grandson cannot be valued. Mr Bak recognised thus and worked tirelessly to achieve a positive outcome while at the same time keeping us informed throughout the process of realistic expectations.”
“Thank you for all the help from you and the team at FGD throughout my 12 months (or more) of pain during settlement. I really did appreciate your professionalism, support and acknowledge that you guys knew what you were doing even when the other party didn’t….unfortunately this cost me due to their incompetence … All the best to everyone there and thanks again.”
“I wish to express my thanks to you and your firm for the representation of me by Kasey Fox during my recent divorce and property settlement…Kasey’s manner, communication style and knowledge of family law matters was excellent. In particular the empathy she displayed when listening and explaining my options helped me a great deal…I have no hesitation recommending Kasey to anyone who found themselves requiring family law advice.”
“FGD provided advice, supported with speedy action where necessary. They also engendered confidence and reassured me in often extremely stressful times.”
“Thank you just doesn’t seem enough!”
“I just wanted to say thanks again for not giving up on us. I really am so glad that you didn’t just throw your hands up in the air and walk away from it all (most certainly a huge temptation)… I know it’s your job, but that you saw it through, regardless of the outcome and many difficulties, says a lot about you. Thanks for your patience.”
“Please accept my sincere thanks for your professional handling of my recent family law matter. You provided a very focused, ethical and decisive service. I am happy with the Orders we achieved, they allow for children to have both parents in their lives with the least disruption to their school lives. It is a win for them! I am stronger person for having completed the process I believed in. Thank you for helping me achieve this.”
“I am writing just to say that I am extremely grateful for your professional support and expertise and your cool steadying hand over recent time in my case. I would also like to pass my thanks on to Ann Northcote and all the others who have helped handle my case over the last two years or more. I know for me it isn’t all over but I feel more able to see the tunnel, even if you can’t yet spot the light.”
“Farrar Gesini & Dunn provided excellent service, excellent courtesy. I felt respected and valued. They were upfront with their fees they discussed and explained any queries I in relation to my account.”
“We were completely happy with the advice we were given – such a relief – efficient and encouraging”
“Outstanding job of being very direct when it came to expecting outcomes of a settlement. Provided sound advice based on experience (beyond law). Were very professional during initial consultation and follow up.”
“Calm and professional interview. Good listening and note taking. Clear legal advice and explanation given of that advice.”
“Acting in a pro-active and timely manner on a time-sensitive issue.”
“Many thanks for everything, the outcome for me was more than I’d hoped for!”
“I would like to thank you and your team for the advice and assistance given to me with the property settlement. It may have been more protracted than we expected, but I value the care that was taken to ensure a fair and dignified solution. In the end, the process was at least equally important to the result and I fear that this would only have been achieved with the collaborative approach.”
“Advice was good, articulated well and I was not pushed into taking a particular course of action. Thank you.”
“Not knowing the law too well I was treated with respect and in a friendly way. My case was set up and ready to proceed on time by the solicitor. It was above and beyond if necessary.”
“I would like to take this opportunity to extend my gratitude with my recent Collaborative Law process involving my ex wife and myself. Not being familiar with this process previously I was not sure how it worked outside normal Family Law processes. It came as a complete surprise to me that both my ex wife and I could have so much more control of the settlement process which is recognised by the Family Court… I found I gained more ownership of the final outcome which, for all intents and purposes, was a good end result for both parties. With both Paul and my ex wife’s solicitor from Consensus Law, Sarah Keenan, acting as mediators throughout, the end result was signed off by both parties and was formulated through agreement by my ex wife and myself and not by solicitors arguing on our behalf in a normal courtroom situation.”
“The ongoing support that I have received even after the settlement has gone through has been nothing short of excellent when I have made inquiries about aspects of the end result that seemingly fell into grey areas. Paul has taken the time to explain to me the interpretation of the orders made which has enhanced my understanding of these grey areas and added to my confidence in the Collaborative Law process and the people who provide this service. As a result I would recommend Collaborative Law (and Paul and his team) to anyone as a viable and less expensive alternative to the more traditional Family Court process.”
