Happy with the experience. Matthies law via the Settify link was easy to use and complete. I have engaged James in a professional capacity to help a number of clients review their estate planning needs and have found his service to be valuable.

James was a wonderful person helping me every step of the way. I was a 65 year old that had never experienced anything with court's lawyers or barristers. James helped me every step of the way and it was a very difficult case of domestic violence and what he did for me was wonderful. Our family will be using James whenever needed and will be recommending him to family and friends.
Thankyou so much James we are very grateful.

It is very hard to get a lawyer who practices in animal law. James took on my case and was always prompt, & informative through my case. He helped me achieve a settlement & I would highly recommend anyone needing help with a Veterinarian dispute to contact James

My wife and I engaged James from Matthies Lawyers to draft our wills. He provided extremely valuable advice about the scope of will we needed for our family situation. I would highly recommend his Matthies Lawyers for both simple and more complex legal advice.

I was really surprised by just how willing James was to offer words of advice prior to putting a bill under our nose. He was sensitive to our needs and pragmatic about what we should do. In the end, he recommended various avenues we could take even before engaging him. This is not the 6-minute billing model I was expecting from a lawyer. Thank you, James.
