I would avoid this counsel at all costs - barrister is extremelt old and incompetent "no time" for existing clients. 2.5months worth of acting counsel for her to her advise "it's too hard". She refuses to take advise and does not allign herself with the barristers act. Had to chase for countless weeks with no response AVOID AVOID AVOID you will waste your time, find another counsel at all costs. This isnt defamation, its the truth and what I went through cheers

Super helpful and went above and beyond. My daughter turns 16 soon so I guess we must part ways, but thankyou from the bottom of my heart for being there, always having time for me, and fighting by my side
