Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘I have been very impressed with Andrew Barton and his attention to detail, work rate and ability to manage the case and the client's expectations. He is a very impressive family lawyer. The support he has had from his associates is equally impressive.’
  • ‘I worked with Sarah Hindle on a very difficult matter. This was compounded by the presentation of the client, who was intelligent but vulnerable by virtue of her life experiences. Sarah was immeasurably patient, incredibly efficient and is obviously a highly skilled, intelligent lawyer.'
