Ian Slater and his legal executive Debbie Sharp have concluded the will and probate for my father and demonstrated their experience and administrative 'know how'. As the executor, their assistance was very helpful and reduced the complexities and time required. I would recommend Ian and this firm for all family law matters. Thank you!
I run a small mortgage broking firm in South East Melbourne and let me tell you, Andrea Milnes was SUPERB from the time she spoke to our client till settlement. In 8 years of lending, I have never experienced a transaction go through so seamlessly smooth. Andrea just knew what to do and how to do it. An amazing conveyancer to say the least. Thank you!
We have worked with MSL on a number of estates, highly professional and excellent staff. Would happily recommend them.
Ian Slater, Debbie Sharp & Poppi Partalis and all the great staff there.Thank You for helping me in situations beyond my control. Ian, Debbie & Poppi must be the most Humane, Human beings I know. Not only are they Thorough, Precise, Leave No Stone Unturned , they also have the Care Factor which is pretty hard to find in the present world we live in. Without hesitation i would recommend to use McDonald, Slater & Lay to get the end results you seek and also feel privileged that you dealt with these total professionals that actually Care and that are looking out for you. Thanks again Guys, Cheers Phil
The 3.3 star rating does not do them justice. If you are judging by Google star rating reviews, consider that a business with only 5 star reviews is possibly manipulating this in some way. Pete and Laura are excellent lawyers. If you are looking for a peaceful and swift resolution to any estate matters, I recommend seeing them. In my case I am dealing with solicitors and executors that have failed to finalise my father's estate, which is still ongoing after 12 years. Estates generally take 12 months to finalise - minimum 6 months all going well. Pete came up with a precise and intelligent way forward that does not involve unnecessary litigation, saving the stress and financial burden that follows such actions. Laura is exceptionally kind, and responsive. Thank you Pete and Laura, your help has made a positive difference, not just for myself but for everyone else involved. This is the way.
