Recommended by a friend 🧡 Highly recommend Great communication Be my go to for future
Well advised, most understanding and very helpful.
I went to them for help with my divorce. They were supportive, explained everything clearly, and made sure I knew my choices. It felt like they were really looking out for me, which was a big help.
Far from professional, from not replying to emails, phone calls and even neglecting to contact or pass on crucial information to the other party involved makes this one of the worst places in Bundaberg to get any legal matter dealt with in a fast and effective manner.
Only working 2 days a week is far from acceptable. I would highly recommend seeking advice from any other legal firm in Bundaberg. Seeking free legal advice from legal aid or google would be far more effective than entertaining this law firm with any case you wish to have dealt with.

Great service from Cam, explained the legal process to me and totally took the stress away as she explained things so well. Returned phone calls in a timely manner, very professional but also friendly and kind.
I would like to thank Cam Dang for the assisting me in my unique Family matter, thus far Cam has provided me with guidance and the right information to proceed., with timely updates on how things are proceeding, effective solutions we where able to get an amazing outcome. Cam's knowledge in family matters is amazing and her patience she gave me. I would highly recommend Cam for any family matters. thank you once again.
King regards Michelle White
My settlement solicitor was Cam Dang, she gave prompt professional advice. Cam was always available to me, and addressed any issues that I was concerned with. A very lovely lady who I would highly recommend to anyone. If I needed a solicitor I would definitely be happy to retain Cam again.
Cam Dang - Knowledgeable and expert.Professional and courteous .Keep me informed throughout .Clear and concise communication .Friendly and approachable exceptional service and most of all exceeded my expectations . Thank you
Very professional, reasonable prices.
A little disappointed and left wondering if all is right. A few silly mistakes made in writing my will, ie. names being wrong, which I considered rather casual. I asked to take my will with me, which seemed to cause some concern, but was given it. Got home to find one page of my will missing, so had to go back. The girl was pleasant enough, but I was left feeling it was all a bit slap dash. I would expect a will to be proof read before giving it to me. I do not expect mistakes from a law firm. Wish I had gone elsewhere.
Ashley Rowlands at Finemore Walters & Story Solicitors recently acted for my elderly aunt in the private sale of her farm. Ashley showed the upmost professionalism at all times, and great patience explaining complex issues in ways that we could understand and factor into decision making. We greatly appreciated Ashley's timely and clear email correspondence, and keeping us informed at every step of the way.
Very professional and friendly staff
The best .

A very helpful and professional business
Good service &, Friendly staff.
easy access for wheelchair, helpful
I had a property to sell through a real estate agent that proved extremely difficult to deal with. Luckily, Annette and Ashley were called in. Ashley was able to deal with it all and give constant communication. It struggled several times but Ashley was able to get it over the line. It made our whole family able to cope because we were confident with FWS. Thank you.
FW&S completed the legal requirements for the sale of my parent’s home. They were so efficient, always in contact, and available. Thank you Tarleigh for all you did. The whole process was explained and service fees were very reasonable. Great reception staff as well.

I contacted this firm to assist me with a legal dispute recently and dealt with Madeline. I found her to be excellent and will use her and this firm again without hesitation.

I’ve used FW&S for several property buy and sells and every single time, the service is an absolute standout. My property settled today and it was such a tough journey with the bank and the agent causing extra stress, but Ashley was just above and beyond helpful, patient and professional. I really appreciated all the support and assistance and will use them for any future dealings, without a shadow of a doubt. The prices are reasonable and the service is excellent. Thank you!
Excellent service here always
Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient but went with another firm for no reason other than comparing.

Wonderful lawyers. Very helpful. Can't thank enough for what they did for me
Very caring,friendly and professional.
I would like to say Rebecca was wonderful in her professional services and so attentive happy to help and always there for me. I would recommend Rebecca to anyone that needs a Lawyer absolutely a delight.
My dealings with Kirsty Nevin went very smoothly and I was impressed with the attention she gave to any concerns I had; the whole process proceeded in a timely manner, and the cost was very reasonable.
Kirsty Nevin was an absolute delight to deal with. Professional, understanding, compassionate. My emails were always answered in a timely fashion. I wouldn't hesitate in using her services again. Susan was very thorough and efficient also. Thank you. Highly recommended!
Zack McKay came to our rescue at very short notice to resolve a dilemma we had on our hands. Throughout our business Zack was completely available either via email or phone and guided us through what could have been a difficult situation for us. I would highly recommend Zack from Finemore Walters Story
I have had the pleasure of dealing with Kam Lumby throughout the sale of my property in Brisbane, QLD. Kam's communication and guidance has been professional, responsive and honestly a pleasure from start to finish.
Thank you Kam for all your assistance. Until next time.

Very professional and friendly firm. Great to do business with.
I have been very happy with the service and advice I have received from FWS, in particular from Zack McKay and Sarah Protani. I have been dealing with Zack for several years now and he has been super helpful, knowledgeable and compassionate. I cannot recommend him, and FWS highly enough.
I have found Finemore Walters and Story to provide exceptional service and advice. I have worked with Geoff Ebert and Zack McKay and both have always been accommodating and responsive to mine and my family's needs. Zack has never shied away from assisting when emotions have run high and in taking on the seemingly difficult cases and making it easy for me the client, through explaining processes and running through each and every scenario that I might bring to him to ensure that I felt thoroughly heard and represented. I cannot recommend them enough and if you are at your wits end and feeling that your solicitor doesn't understand you, try FWS, because they listen.
