Firm review summary

Stevens Orchard Lawyers receives mixed feedback reflecting significant inconsistencies in service delivery. Recent positive reviews praise communication, professionalism, and helpfulness from staff including Margot, while older reviews cite serious concerns including ghosting clients, missing agreed deadlines, failure to respond to queries over extended periods, and unfinished work on property and trust matters. One reviewer alleged the firm declined their initial instruction then later represented the opposing party in court. The firm's track record suggests strong interpersonal skills but substantial gaps in follow-through and client communication.
