Peter Baker grew up in rural Victoria and studied Science and Law at Monash University before being admitted to practice in Victoria as a Barrister and Solicitor in 1988. Peter then worked in the northern suburbs of Melbourne initially in private practice then at a community legal centre and then at Victoria Legal Aid before coming to practice in Bendigo in 2002.
We recognise that legal services are costly and for many people costs can limit their involvement in legal proceedings. We believe we provide excellent value to clients in the fees we charge and do what we can to have client's matters resolved as cost effectively as possible. We are happy to undertake legal aid work if you qualify for a grant from Victoria Legal Aid.

I personally would not recommend this law firm to anyone I have final orders from 2012 where the former partner broke on several occasions this law firm would not present the evidence to the judge as Well as that they expect you be happy with orders that the other party want to place which allianates your child. On top of that good luck if you want to make an appointment to see your solicitor to inform them that they have broken the current intrem orders in which they happily accepted to allianate your child I would personally not even give them a star well I would if you want a solicitor to fight

Undoubtedly the best experience I had. My family court case was extremely distressing and Peter and his team really made the difference. Not to mention his fee's were incredibly reasonable compared to other enquiries we made. I cannot recommend Peter and his team highly enough, the stressful time was made just a little bit easier by using him....HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Disappointing meeting with Peter. Clearly discriminates against people with mental health issues. Has photos of Martin Luther King, the anonymous man with the shopping bag in front of the tank during tienaman square protests in China and muslim women who turned out to vote in iraq after the war and he says he represents those who are brave like those in his photos however this man is a biggot make no mistake. He only understands discrimination as it is taught and professed by popularity and is unaware of the modern issues of discrimination such as those faced by people with mental health issues

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know of my experience with Peter and his Team. Far too often, people are eager to complain, but I wanted to take the time to write to let you know that I am very pleased with the support, compassion and professionalism of Peter. Throughout my cases, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during times that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and details/developments of my cases.
Peter did everything in his power to ensure the process ran smoothly and made me feel as comfortable as possible. The

ABSOLUTE RIP OFF.
Peter is your typical small business owner, that rips you off with any chance he can get.
Peter and his employees will find anyway to over charge you with anyway means possble. Eg posting letters as well as emailing, obviously charging per page as well as printing costs.
He gave me cost estimates on numerous occasions throughout the ordeal, which tripled when i received the bill.
Peter and his staff are useless, they will drag out everything obviously making more money.
No doubt in my mind the worst experience ive ever had with any buisness..
AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
