Testimonials

Hi Russell,

I would like to say thank you for handling the estate of my father D.A for at least 18 months. Local Lawyers has handled this case very well and I am deeply grateful with the outcome. These past 18 months were extremely tough and difficult for all of us.

I would like to acknowledge the amazing work that Nam put into the case. He was challenged…throughout this entire period and only remained calm and professional throughout. This made me and my family feel at ease, knowing that the case was handled by someone who was experienced to deal with these challenges. Nam displayed amazing communication skills and often would follow up with calls and emails which made me feel very included in the work he was doing behind the scenes. He was always clear and concise with his emails and would explain things we didn’t understand and needed clarity on. Nam and I built a client connection and I felt I could always contact him without hesitancy.

I hope Nam’s hard work and professionalism in law, is highly recognised by you and Local Lawyers. I will definitely be recommending Local Lawyers to anyone who needs assistance with legal matters.

Your assistance throughout, has helped make a difficult situation somewhat easier. Your compassionate understanding shown to Mum was very much appreciated by A and me, and Mum always found her visits left her with a clear understanding of the situation and what needed to be done.

Your capable and efficient management, including your clear communications and prompt response times meant that we all had complete confidence in your advice.

Dear Mr Cocks,

I am writing to express my deepest thanks to two of your team, Nam Vo and Stephen Kirby.

Since April 2022, when I had my first appointment with Nam to start the probate process for my late aunt, I have received expert guidance, advice and support. Throughout a longer than anticipated journey, I have been able to clearly understand the law around probate, my responsibilities and also how to manage each step.

What cannot be expressed more highly is the deep level of care and support for me as a client, navigating an unknown situation which has been incredibly stressful. You may be aware that my aunt’s will was challenged and ended up in the County Court in mid-August. Stephen’s advice, and selection of barrister for the case, was exemplary. As was the amount of work in the weeks (and weekend) leading up to the court case! Nam was able to attend the first morning of court to be an additional support which was very much appreciated.

The countless emails, phone calls and meetings have always resulted in me feeling even more supported, and importantly for me, my position was heard and understood.

I am so pleased that my aunt and uncle had their wills prepared and kept with your offices, as I now know I have lawyers that I can trust with my own legal affairs. Nam has already advised me that Stephen will be able to help with the guardianship application for my mother who has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimers.

I have already recommended Local Lawyers to a colleague who needed a second opinion on probate and will continue to recommend your team to anyone who asks.

With sincere gratitude

L.B.

To Russell Cocks

I would just like to let you know how grateful we are to have Nam’s expertise in dealing with my parents’ estate. Having lost my dad in 2020 Nam was very competent in helping my mum change over names and account and titles for the house and follow the arrangements that my Dad had made in his will. Unfortunately in December 2022 we lost my mum and found ourselves in need of Nam’s services again nothing was too much trouble he followed mum’s requests to the letter. Helping me to get the best deal for their unit and reminding me what to ask for from the agents.

Nam always made sure that I knew what and when things were being done. He is always available for confirmation of procedures and returned all calls and enquiries within a prompt time frame.

We would just like to thank Nam for all his patience and all he has done for us through this stressful time. He was always calm and happy, he explained all the processes clearly and confidently and didn’t rush us through to make decisions. His confidence knowledge and professionalism shone through with every decision that had to be made.

My parents would have been very happy knowing that they made the right decision years ago to get Nam to handle their estate.

I would highly recommend Nam to anyone needing legal advice. He is very easy to talk to and very diligent in his work.

Thankyou again for everything.

Regards

L.M.

To Russell Cocks

Hi Russell, a brief note of appreciation for all the work Nam has put in while probating my mother’s estate. So far it has taken almost 18 months, due to the delayed sale of the family home. This is now under contract. Nam was extremely helpful in facilitating this process. His advice relating the options available proved very useful and assisted with the optimisation of the sale. I rate his advice and that of the company with respect to an adverse possession matter also very highly.

Your sincerely

A.M.

Thank you Nam for all your expert help. You were such a gret help winding up my mother’s estate. I would highly recommend Nam to anyone needing a lawyer.
