Morris Legal Group offers a range of unique services
I cannot rate Louise and the Morris Legal team more highly. They recently assisted my family with their conveyancing and made the process stress and hassle free. They are very approachable and explain complicated legal things very simply so all can understand. Knowing my family was protected means everything. I highly recommend using their services.
Ive hesitated to write this review, but I believe it’s important to share my experience. I’ve faced significant financial consequences, including over $26k in penalties, interest, and taxes, due to a form that was completed without my knowledge. Despite providing evidence to the contrary, I have repeatedly been held responsible for this error. The refusal to acknowledge the mistake made by your team and the continued insistence that the action was taken based on my instructions has been deeply frustrating. I’m disappointed by the lack of accountability and professionalism, especially with ongoing issues, like the incorrect residential address in your recent communication.
Our experience with Morris legal group was overall a great experience. We received timely advice as well. Our home buying process was full of interesting turns, but our case manager, Raina, went above and beyond to ensure that all appropriate documentation was found. We have recommended Morris Legal group to our friends and family and would use them again in the future.
The team from Morris Legal Group recently created two legal documents for my business - terms of engagement for new clients, and terms for subcontractors who join me on projects. Both of these documents were expertly written, and clear for both the recipient and myself to understand. MLG took the time to understand my business and how it operates, and the bespoke requirements that would need to go into these terms. This empathy and expertise gave me a great source of comfort knowing that my business would be protected and everyone involved would be starting off on the same page. All experiences I've had with MLG has been easy. They keep me informed at every point, are always happy to answer my questions, and provide sound council and value for money. When I've had to contact them in more stressful situations, Director Louise Morris has always made me feel calm and reassured. The whole team is welcoming and accomplished, and I can't help but want to recommend them to anyone looking for a positive and professional legal experience.
My partner and I recently moved down from Sydney and purchased a house in Canberra. Holly from Morris was fantastic during the buying process, telling us about the nuances of the ACT legislation, looking at contracts (often at short notice), including advice on details such as the purchase of solar panels, our rights at auction, and advising us on the exchange process. Holly and her colleague Mel executed the settlement process seamlessly. I would have no hesitation in using them again.
