Testimonials
Rajesh sought a contract review before signing on the dotted line

"McManus and Co Lawyers were most helpful from the beginning. Carolyn especially has been very kind in not only providing contract reviews at very short notice but also being a listening ear and providing guidance around our purchasing decisions. We found McManus and Co Lawyers when looking for a firm that provided services for conveyancing, power of attorneys, wills etc. essentially a one stop shop for all our legal needs. Looking forward to having a long relationship with them.”

Rob needed help with buying his first home

“McManus & Co Lawyers were a pleasure to deal with. They were professional, thorough and organised while also friendly and helpful. I was very pleased with the high level of service provided and would happily engage their services again.“

Chris needed help with family law property settlement

“I was very well supported and given the best service and advice I could ask for. The team went over and above to help me with my matter. I will use McManus & Co Lawyers for all my legal needs – they are by far the best in the business. I can’t thank the team and Kerry enough.”

Richard received help with estate administration

“The professionalism, communication and compassion shown by McManus & Co Lawyers was exceptional. I would like others to know how much they helped us. I will not hesitate to recommend McManus & Co Lawyers to friends who may need professional help.”

Anna needed support on a family law matter

“ I was very nervous about seeing a solicitor and discussing my family law matter...Beate and Gabrielle McManus calmed my fears. As my matter was being dealt with, Gabrielle was always friendly and caring – explaining terms I didn’t understand and keeping me updated with progress.”

Catherine needed help with her estate

“I cannot recommend McManus & Co Lawyers highly enough. They showed me great compassion and understanding while dealing with the settlement of my ‘Deceased Estate’ work…and they made me feel more like a family member than a client.”
