I cannot thank Amelia from Conditsis Lawyers enough for the incredible support and guidance she provided during one of the most stressful and emotionally challenging periods of my life. From the very beginning, Amelia was a godsend—her calm, compassionate approach immediately put me at ease and gave me the confidence I desperately needed.

Her knowledge and expertise in Family Law were outstanding, and thanks to her dedication and attention to detail, the outcome of my case was excellent. Beyond the legal side of things, Amelia truly cared about my well-being. She listened without judgment, communicated clearly every step of the way, and was always available when I needed reassurance or advice.

I am so grateful to have had her in my corner and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance, with family matters. Amelia is a rare combination of professionalism, skill, and genuine empathy—an absolute credit to Conditsis Lawyers.

I also want to give special credit to Donna, the paralegal who supported Amelia throughout my matter. Donna was incredibly helpful, organized, and kind—always ready to assist and provide updates when needed. Together, they made a truly exceptional team.

I stumbled upon Conditsis Lawyers completely by accident. I reached out and Liam Loader called me back, then he changed my life. The care and commitment given to me in a difficult court matter, kept me going forward, I'm not a strong person, but Liam's quite confidence, and his ability to understand and hear my situation with empathy and respect gave me strength to see it through. My life is completely mine now. I highly recommend Conditsis Lawyers. Samuel Oakley and especially Liam Loader. Thank you. I'm so incredibly grateful for everything.

We had the pleasure of speaking with Nathan from Conditsis Lawyers. What was supposed to be a 15 minute phone consultation went longer as Nathan was more than happy to assist us and give us advice. He clearly had our best interest at heart as he advised us how to proceed with our matter even before paying to utilise their services. His advice was invaluable and allowed us to proceed further down our legal avenue. If our matter proceeds, we will definitely be employing his services as he is very knowledgeable, fair and just.

I engaged Conditisis Lawyers to handle property settlement matters related to my divorce commencing in 2023. Specifically, my affairs were managed primarily by Solicitor Ayanah Hood.

Ayanah provided exemplary advice and support which culminated in an outcome I believe to be the best possible for me. Ayanah involved herself on a personal level and undertook to understand the nuances of my case. Her approach alleviated a great deal of the stress that is inherently part of Family Law cases.

I would highly recommend Ayanah and Conditsis Lawyers to effectively and professionally manage cases involving Family Court matters.

Ayanah Hood from Conditis Lawyers was extremely helpful in assisting me to draw up, lodge, and finalise Financial Consent Orders for my pending divorce. Many people don't realise they can start the Financial arrangements as soon as they separate, you don't need to wait 12 months. My situation meant I needed to have definite Financial Consent Orders to protect and secure my own financial situation in an already difficult time. Ayanah was amazing, she talked through everything with me and drew up the draft paperwork and helped me navigate the entire process from start to finish. Ayanah went out of her way to make the process as easy and quick as possible and her professionalism, helpfulness, knowledge, empathy, and understanding made a world of difference to me. Thanks to Ayanah I am able to move forward feeling more secure about my financial situation because the Financial Consent Orders have been completed. It's one step of many, yet without Ayanah's help I would be in a much worse place financially and emotionally. You can't put a dollar figure on that. I highly recommend Ayanah and Conditis Lawyers for Divorce proceedings, Financial Consent Orders, and all the moving parts of separation and divorce including drafting a New Will and planning all of the processes needed to separate and divorce in a way that makes you feel understood and helped in a tumultuous time. Can't recommend highly enough, you'll be in good hands using Conditis Lawyers. Thank you!

I can’t express the gratitude I have for the expertise & diligent service provided by Conditsis Lawyers - Particularly Solicitor Francis Devine.

A Not Guilty verdict was read today at the end of a lengthy trial. He didn’t back down & fought tooth & nail with the police prosecutor over the bar to reach a great result.

I would highly recommend Francis Devine for anyone looking to be represented by a professional young solicitor.

Congratulations today on a great result & thank you Francis Devine for the top tier service.

They are the worst lawyer firm I've ever come across. My wife was ripped off $20,000 as soon as she had her bail revoked Kayla Neilson dropped her like a red rag to a bull. Did nothing for the money & didn't even pass on evidence material my wife provided & ended up with legal aid and a conviction. I wouldn't waste my money & time. They charged $4,000 for a Psychiatrist to see my wife once who suffers from Bipolar and for some reason took her off of medication she'd been on for years, she now has great difficulty getting back on those medication because of one session with a Psychiatrist who spoke to her once. The report he wrote was not tendered to the court. It was my wife who was assaulted and only defending herself in the front door of our unit. We had CCTV & none of this was presented to the court the alleged victim lied. Our car was smashed with a baseball bat and the CCTV showed her with a bat. Never knew that trained people like a solicitor could be so incredibly incompetent. We pleaded not guilty and both spent time in remand and in the end both ended up with legal aid who said well you've done some time you'll go home today took another 6wks for pre sentence reports. Don't waste your hard earned and if you go there and they want to give you Kayla Nelson run, as she needs to ask a barrister for help and then the price gets tagged on to the bill with out your knowledge stay as far away as you can find some other law firm

I would highly recommend Michelle Bromfield and her team at Conditsis Lawyers, for their professionalism, empathy, and support, which enabled me to address legal issues following my mum’s passing. During an exceedingly challenging time for me, Michelle’s patience, and kindness helped me immensely to deal with my hostile and uncooperative sibling (and co-executor).I also appreciated Michelle’s pro-active communication and guidance, regarding the protracted probate. My wife and I were so impressed with Michelle’s efforts that we engaged her and the team to prepare our own Estate Planning Documents (Wills, Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship) and we were able to incorporate our lessons learnt in them. Thank you, Michelle, and the Conditsis team.
