A nightmare to deal with! Extremely slow to respond to communication, even slower to action requests, constant spelling mistakes, information not captured correctly, generally very unprofessional. Very amateur conduct.

A frustrating experience as a seller and even more frustrating for the buyer and buyers agent who didn’t have their requests actioned until our conveyancer chased and chased. Really not good enough and caused unnecessary angst for both parties.

I recently worked with LWA solicitors on a legal matter and I have to say that I was thoroughly impressed with their level of expertise and professionalism. From the moment I reached out to them, they were responsive and helpful, guiding me through the legal process with ease.

One of the standout individuals at LWA solicitors was Keelin Williams. He was instrumental in helping me navigate the complex legal landscape and ensuring that my case was handled effectively. He was always available to answer my questions and provided sound legal advice that ultimately led to a successful outcome.

Apart from his legal prowess, I also learned that Keelin is a skilled rugby union player for Barron. This speaks to his well-rounded nature and his ability to excel both in his professional and personal pursuits.

Overall, I would highly recommend LWA solicitors to anyone in need of legal representation. They have a team of highly skilled professionals, such as Keelin Williams, who are committed to providing exceptional service and achieving the best possible outcome for their clients.

LWA solicitors in Cairns is a team of high knowledge, professionalism, and approachability. They listened attentively to my concerns and provided me with clear and concise legal advice that was easy to understand. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence was evident throughout the entire process. In particular, their young conveyancer Keelin Williams of whom I had the opportunity to speak with over the phone leaving me mightily impressed with his efficiency and effectiveness. He went above and beyond to help answer any of my questions and it was clear that he was passionate about his work and genuinely cared about helping me out. Overall, I would highly recommend having a chat to him or any member of the team to anyone in need of legal services in the Cairns area particularly as they are a local family and understand the community’s needs.

LWA Solicitors provided services in handling my deceased father’s estate and in the conveyancing of the sale of his property. I found all members of this firm pleasant to deal, informative and efficient. All steps involved were clearly explained; I was kept informed throughout all stages of the various processes; and pricing was made explicit at the beginning. I would highly recommend this firm for friendly, efficient service.

I engaged Lee Williams & Associates to help deal with a false review left for my company on google. After a few emails back and forth, the matter was dealt with and resolved efficiently. As the majority of clients find us through google, the small bill incurred was easily outweighed by the positive impact on the business of having it removed. My only regret is that I didn't engage them sooner.
