Thanks Esther. It is great to know that our work helps people who put their trust in us. Even though we are just carrying out our professional obligations to help all client's as you would expect it helps us to know it is appreciated.
I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Sally! She handled my custody case, and she always responded in a timely matter! Reassured me when I was anxious and freaking out. I got such a good outcome and words can't even describe how grateful I am that she was there helping me the whole way through.
Response from the owner 23:25 07 Dec 25
Rachelle, that's great to hear. I'm not suprised as Sally has helped clients before and the whole firm get great satisfaction when our client's take our advice and we get the good result they deserve. I know it was a difficult time and glad we could help you through.
Response from the owner 01:29 08 Dec 25
Thankyou for your review Sarah, we appreciate feedback and are always looking for new ways to improve and innovate. 
A massive thank you to Chris and Sally who were always available for me. I highly recommend Just Family Law if you are unfortunate enough to need a family lawyer. I had seen a generalist lawyer previously and they couldn't compare.
Response from the owner 23:29 07 Dec 25
Yes it was a pleasure dealing with you too. It's good you noticed that we do a lot better than a generalist lawyer as we specialise in this family law area and property settlements are not for just any solicitor.
Hiring Sally from just family law would be a big mistake in your high conflict matter. I have wasted 6 months of my time with no results and down over $7,500. we applied to the courts then no follow up or actions two months later and when I questioned she would say it will be fine then bill be for the email. if you want results try someone else. good luck
Response from the owner 01:33 08 Dec 25
I note that Sally and our firm have a lot of positive reviews so we take this seriously. We really can't say too much about this due to our professional obligations to you but there are definitely two sides to this and some things left out. I looked into all that was done, when it was done, and the reasons for delay and inanction, and the reasons for disatisfaction. This review does not reflect the reality of the case. Whilst we are sorry that you feel the way you do we are not sure what more we could do for you. We wish you luck moving forward.
AMAZING! Thank you so much to the team at JFL! A fabulous outcome for someone who was resistant to move through this process. It was daunting & exhausting to think about but my initial meeting with Chris reassured me that it was the right thing to do. From there on I liaised with Joe & Sally & I could not have asked for a better outcome. So personable & comforting during a time that is difficult at the best of times. Thank you for all your patience & understanding & most of all, for closing a chapter that could only be closed by doing what I had to do. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Mila, that is exactly the way we set it up to work for our client's. We appreciate your feedback and it is satisfying to know our expertise and specialisation in family law was of great use to you.
Would highly recommend Just Family Law with any family law proceedings. They go above and beyond

Thanks David. Glad we got the good and right result. Good luck going forward. 
David and his team did an absolutely excellent job helping me get consent orders made. Great communication right from the first time I called. They understood my situation from the get go and I needed help immediately, they made time for me straight away. David was very patient listened to what I had to say and gave me all my options and I felt feeling so much better when I walked out of there after meeting him. He explained everything clearly and answered all my questions in regards to how long things would take to process and everything went through exactly as he had mentioned. Also he understood my financial situation and told me precisely how much it would cost. Absolutely thanking my stars for having got help from David and his team. You guys are awesome. Keep up the great work🌟 Thank you once again.

Despite a difficult, complex and emotional undertaking, David handled and resolved all matters in a professional, timely and effective manner. Many thanks!
Just Family Law have been in the Dandenong area for over 20 years and when it comes to family law matters, they are the specialists.
I found the service to be very honest and reliable. Very professional in their dealings with me. Highly recommended.
I highly recommend Sally O'Connor and Just Family Law.
Our circumstances in engaging JFL were due to the sudden and tragic passing of my sister. Sally assisted our family through complex legal proceedings as we sought full parental responsibilities for her three children, my nieces and nephew.
Sally was able to shift from holding my hand and passing tissues, to providing practical solutions, advice and guidance on how best to navigate the legal system and achieve what was in the best interest of the kids.
Thank you Sally, we will never be able to express how much you did for us and how your counsel and friendship helped us navigate an incredibly difficult time.
No hesitation at all in recommending Sally, and the JFL team.

A barrister pointed me to them saying they were good for other referrals and I'm so happy I did engage them. I've heard horror stories but Sally and David were great. Not exactly cheap but seemed priceless. I recommend.
I recently engaged Just Family Law to assist with the preparation of a Binding Financial Agreement and could not have been happier with the advice and service I received. From reception to solicitors to assistants they were approachable, compassionate, knowledgable and expert in family law issues. I highly recommend
We used Just Family law for my daughter’s divorce property settlememt. Sally and her team have been fantastic to deal with. The process was so easy for us and more importantly done in a kind and professional manner. Highly recommend their services.
