I have had the pleasure of dealing with Alan Skinner and his firm over the course of several years for advice in relation to a number of commercial matters. The advice given has invariably been sound, well founded and has lead to an expeditious and cost-effective resolution. I would not hesitate to recommend Hale Legal.

My experience with Hale Legal has been an excellent one. Alan Skinner heads up an extremely professional team at Hale. My case was handled with professionalism, efficiency at all times and due to the diligent work of my lawyer Peter Mariotto, I did not have go to court to have my case heard before a magistrate. My case was resolved in timely manner. I have no hesitation in recommending Hale Legal.
Excellent!

I'm am indebted to Alan Skinner and his staff for the fantastic work they have done for me in a recent debt recovery matter. I have been referring clients to Alan for a long time based on Alan's professionalism and knowledge of all commercial law but can say from first hand experience why they are a first class commercial law firm. Keep up the great work guys!
