Testimonials

"Staff are responsive and considerate to the fact that clients may not be conversant or understanding of the detailed processes involved in conveyancing. They are very considerate in providing explanations and support."

– Wayne

"Holly is professional, personable and very good at her job. This is now the second time that she has provided me with a hassle-free conveyancing service and I will have no hesitation in coming back to her in the new year for the sale of our own home."

– WS, Wanniassa ACT

“Just wanted to reach out and commend Holly on her work. She’s done three property transactions this week for me and they were faultless. I’m so impressed with her can-do attitude and still in a little bit of shock with how smoothly it all went.”

– Ivan G

"This year was the first time I had purchased property - one off the plan (deposit only) and the apartment in Kingston. Both experiences have been handeld well and with great patience. I had no real concept of the process and Raina was most helpful. I am process driven and she accommodated me on this journey."

- L, Lane Cove NSW

"Fantastic experience. I didn’t have to lift a finger… Erin and her team really did all the work for me. It was so seamless, I actually forgot it was settlement day!”

– Matthew

"What did Morris Legal Group do well? Efficiency, extremely helpful and explaining things clearly so that I could understand."

- K, Bonner ACT

"I was never overwhelmed with the process or information. My questions and concerns were always taken seriously and if it couldn't be resolved, I was passed straight to someone who could help. I also appreciate that there was always someone to take over if another staff member was on leave or unwell."

- Hayley

"Erin went above and beyond at the pointy end of the transaction, working with other parties (who were not quite as efficient and willing to make it happen!) to get the best outcome for me."

- Meg

"Morris Legal Group’s service didn’t seem transactional but more a collaborative partnership - a welcome change from other legal firms with which we have dealt. We would not hesitate in using Morris Legal Group again."

– V & A, Sydney NSW

"Erin was efficient and effective. She communicated well."

- G, Red Hill ACT

"Thank you Morris Legal Group for your wonderful assistance with my recent purchase. The solicitor for the other side certainly made things difficult, but your team were able to navigate us through a difficult exchange and settlement process (plus throw in the added complexity of the COVID lockdown in Canberra)... I will be recommending Morris Legal Group to all my friends and family."

– Michael from Griffith ACT

“Best Conveyancing team I’ve come across in my days.”

– Ivan G

"Easy to deal with, effective communication and highly efficient. Louise and MLG have a great reputation in the industry."

- Peter

"The best thing about my experience with Morris Legal was the commitment to delivering an exceptional serivce and communicating the process when things got close to settlement."

- Meg

"Raina and Sandra were extremely responsive, replying to emails within a day and readily taking our calls."

– Zak

"We couldn’t be happier with the service of Morris Legal Group. Swift completion of work and personalisation are their strengths. We always felt informed about our matter."

– V & A, Sydney NSW

"Erin was fantastic. Always communicated and responded efficiently. Always kept her word and was extremely professional and helpful. Erin helped us understand difficult information and she was extremely supportive."

- Vanessa

"Literally everything was amazing, start to finish. Despite a very uneasy and uncertain purchase/sale process, Mel (in particular) was an incredible support, as was Holly. Mel was reassuring, professional, positive (but realistic), innovative in thinking through the problems at hand, and generally gave me the confidence I was lacking. Cannot speak highly enough of Mel and Holly"

- Jacqueline

"Responded on time and were easy and polite to deal with. Kept the legalese to a minimum too!"

- Judy

"I would definitely recommend Morris Legal Group to others and would immediately use their services again. I wouldn’t go anywhere else."

- KG, Bonner ACT

"Mel was wonderful and assisted me though the whole process."

- Wendy

"Very helpful and thorough, polite and patient, provided great advice and guidance."

- K, Moncrieff ACT

"Holly was outstanding. She provided well considered advice in a timely manner. We experienced a couple of set backs (not related to Holly) and she handled every interaction with empathy and kindness while pragmatically advising us of our options. We will absolutely use Holly again in the future."

- Georgia
