I contacted Rodrigo Haddad regarding an issue that was very stressful to me that I was facing with my company. My company was holding my superannuation and did not pay me my overtime working at night for 4 months and they were playing with me not answering, making excuses in order to avoid paying me Rodrigo in a matter of 1 week fixed my situation and made the company pay me all the money that I considered was lost, thank you Rodrigo

I had the pleasure of working with Rodrigo Haddad on a complex case, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. Thanks to his expertise, I received a settlement much larger than I had anticipated. Rodrigo was attentive, personable, and friendly throughout the process. He took my case seriously and represented me exceptionally well. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you for your outstanding support!

After several months of unsuccessfully trying to recover a contractor’s debt on my own through debt letters, I hired their services and in less than a week I was paid for almost two months of work. The team is exceptional, and Rodrigo Haddad, the lawyer, is a legend. Without a doubt, I will turn to them again for any future legal disputes.

My experience with Marshalls+Dent+ Wilmonth was deeply disappointing. Despite significant financial investment, I felt unheard and often marginalised for wanting more time with my children. Their lack of preparation for key legal proceedings and persistent pressure to settle for less than what I sought underscored their ineffectiveness in representing fathers in custody matters.

Their actions were particularly egregious when they abruptly withdrew from my case just one month before it was to be heard in court, showing arrogance and a clear disregard for the well-being of the children involved. It became evident that they prioritised clients who complied without question rather than genuinely advocating for meaningful parental relationships. Their approach did not foster a healthy co-parenting environment, prompting me to seek new counsel who could better support my interests and concerns.

I had a great experience with Joseph Anker who helped me negotiate with the house builder. Owing to the financial issues, I had to cancel the building contract and tried to get the refund from the deposit. However, builder gave me a list showing me all the costs and expenses incurred for the contract cancellation. I would not get the refund but still owe them money. And the builder would like to waive the money. Thanks Joseph to help me out with the way they calculated the costs and expenses. Joseph is passionate to read the contract detailedly and recalculated the costs and expenses and I could get the refund. Finally, I got the refund.

Our Company engaged Rodrigo Haddad to represent us in a legal proceeding, which included a court case in another State, that we were unable to attend. Throughout the matter I found him to be very professional and extremely knowledgeable about the case. I was also really impressed with his communication. He phoned frequently with the updates of the case and also explained the information in the emails he forwarded to us, which gave me the opportunity to clarify any information that I wasn't sure about. Rodrigo was extremely efficient, as he was able to find a solution to resolve the case in a very timely manner. I highly recommend his services to anyone who requires a lawyer to represent them.

We approached Rodrigo Haddad as we were being chased for various invoices which we disputed and were unable to come to an agreement. Rodrigo understood what the issue was and what we were trying to achieve. Rodrigo managed to achieve a fantastic result for us in a very cost affective way.

It was a pleasure working with Rodrigo – Highly recommended.

Our business engaged the services of Rodrigo to resolve a couple of commercial disputes regarding outstanding invoices. His case management and knowledge of the sector was second-to-none, making our experience a very straightforward process. Communication was polite and timely, and Rodrigo went above and beyond to make sure we were well versed in all elements of the proceedings. We will have no hesitation working with Rodrigo again in the future and highly recommend him to any prospective businesses looking for dispute resolution services.

We were recommended to Rodrigo Haddad after seeking a recommendation for an outstanding lawyer.

We had purchased a brand new Caravan that unfortunately had major faults. We tried to come to a resolution with the Caravan company ourselves, but all our attempts were unsuccessful.

Rodrigo took on our case and presented a letter of demand for a full refund. Within 24 hours the Caravan company agreed and accepted the demands.

We found Rodrigo to be highly knowledgeable, professional, and very client service-focused. He has excellent research and analytical skills and delivered an excellent outcome. The Caravan has been collected and we have successfully received a full refund.

We can not thank Rodrigo enough for his help and we also recommend him as an outstanding lawyer.

We engaged Rodrigo Haddad.to oversee a legal matter regarding finale payment of some invoices outstanding after going through VCAT, Rodrigo was able to send the other party a statutory demand. A statutory demand is a formal demand whereby the other party has 21 days (plus an additional 7 days to allow for postage) to make payment of the debt, failing which they will be presumed to be insolvent. Payment was made within the 21 days, we are very happy with Rodrigo, I will defiantly be using him in the future.

After needing urgent help and guidance with some unforeseen traffic infringements we were referred to Rodrigo Haddad. Rodrigo was amazing to deal with, he is so thorough and prompt. The matter was dealt with and over within a few days. Rodrigo answered all of my concerns and questions with facts and immense research. At the end of the matter Rodrigo broke down what we needed to do moving forward in an easy step by step instruction and we are extremely satisfied with the result. Rodrigo saved us tens of thousands of dollars in potential fines. I highly recommend his services

i was reccomended to see Nicolina Lademan, and i am so disappointed on the poor service i received, Nicolina has not had enough years of experience in the law firm.., she destroyed my case and all she cares about is taking clients money, i noticed this and took all my files to a experienced professional lawyer and he was extremely disappointed on the mess she created and now I'm paying someone else to fix her mess, It is clear that Nicoina does not know what she is doing if you have money to throw in the rubbish then go to her. Please do not see her for legal service the people that recommended me had never been to her they just googled solicitor in the area and unfortunately she came up DISASTER!!!!!!!
