Would give six stars if I could.I have engaged Lawpoint on two different occasions and I have found Romeo and Rita (practice manager) to be highly professional and caring. On each occasion the service fees were very reasonable for the work involved.

My 95 years old mother decided to change her original will (also done at Lawpoint).It was a slow process but Romeo was always very professional, helpful, considerate and patient. My mum is very satisfied with the service she received and recommends the legal firm.

Romeo was very helpful and went above and beyond in providing support to me in my legal matter.While I was unfortunately not able to engage his services in this instance, he provided some sound preliminary issues for consideration that was of great assistance.I would very happily engage Romeo in the future for any legal advice within his areas of practice.Thanks again for your help Romeo and Rita (and not making me feel like just another 6 min billing interval).

Romeo guided me through every step of the legal process, always ensuring that I understood my options and felt supported. Their expertise and dedication were evident in how they handled my case, I highly recommend Romeo to anyone in need of a skilled and reliable family lawyer.

Romeo and his team were fantastic from beginning to end. We had a long drawn out journey purchasing our house - many contract reviews, conveyancing work, advice and communications occurred over an almost 12 month process. At all times, Romeo was patient, professional and empathetic which we thoroughly appreciated. Would highly recommend Lawpoint and Romeo and will use them again!

We have engaged Lawpoint in June 2022 to assist with the legal aspects of purchasing a property. Helder and Fiona have not only given us valuable advice, they also made the whole process easy and transparent. During all stages of the contract negotiations and amendments, they were there for us whenever we had questions or concerns. After previously working with Helder in a family law matter, where he has proven to be the right choice for the case, he has again delivered. We highly recommend Helder and his team.

I would recommend Lawpoint Lawyers to anybody wanting honest no bull legal advice and advocacy work. I found the team to be efficient, always happy to answer my questions, but most importantly kept me constantly in the loop.I used Lawpoint for conveyancing for two properties and things rang very smoothly and the fees where very reasonable.

Could not have asked for better service than i received from Lawpoint They were so helpful and sincere in the service they provided. We had to have a will made out. Appointment of Enduring Guardian and Power of Attorney. All of this was performed while my brother was in hospital, which they came to to his hospital bed they were great and very caring under the circumstances of my brother illness. I would recommend them to every one to use.

Romeo and Rita helped me navigate executing an uncle’s Will, and recently drew up Wills etc for me and my wife. They’re serious in all the right ways, and seem to notice every detail, but they’re warm and friendly and understanding too—including when I accidentally wrote on a key document, causing them a fair bit of grief! They also get stuff done quickly. Hugely recommended...

I used Lawpoint for the purposes of conveyancing when selling my property. The team at Lawpoint were extremely professional and attended to any matters that arose with swift precision that left me with a high sense of confidence and trust. They were even courteous enough to attend to finalising my settlement while their office was closed during the Christmas and New Years break.I highly recommend Lawpoint for any conveyancing matters and have no doubt their quality of work would definitely extend to any other legal matters.

Selling our house of 18 years and trying to understand my entitlements, came with a lot of emotions, stress and uncertainty. The whole process could have been very overwhelming, but I am so grateful to have had Romeo El Daghl by my side throughout the whole process. He always came across a fair person, and always put my concerns to the front. With all settlements finalised smoothly, I am feeling grateful and can now move on with new ventures in my life. I honestly cannot fault one single thing with the whole legal process and would always return to Romeo and his team for any future dealings.

Since 2007 Romeo and his team have helped me with a personal injury matter, divorce settlement, property conveyancing, binding financial agreement (prenup) and my will. I would highly recommend Romeo for such matters due to his professionalism, practical approach and focus on achieving the best possible outcome at the lowest possible cost. His excellent negotiation skills ensured fair out-of-court settlements in the personal injury and divorce settlement matters. Also, Romeo and Rita are warm and friendly and a pleasure to have on my side, especially considering the stressful times when I needed help.
