Testimonials.

“Feeling very nervous about the mediation, I shouldn’t have worried. They had my back completely and made me so comfortable, that I actually remembered most of what I should have. Not normal for me in these circumstances. Thanks guys. You are outstanding in your field.”

"I felt like I was important and that my needs mattered. My issue was resolved professionally and quickly allowing me to transition from a toxic environment with little to zero stress. Their communication and work ethic meant I was well looked after. I could not have asked for better representation."

“We have been super happy with Davenports since moving across a couple of years ago. We have used Davenports for a range of things including restructuring family trusts, setting up a business, wills, and conveyancing. They have given us really good practical advice, respond promptly to our enquiries, and have gone the extra mile when needed. We highly recommend Tammy and the team”
