"Engaging with a family lawyer comes at a time when there is much uncertainty and angst. 

Kate provided guidance from the beginning of the process, in a highly supportive and understanding manner. 

She always responded in a timely manner, via phone and/or email. 

Thank you, Kate. "

"I cannot speak highly enough of Victoria Treloar and would thoroughly recommend her as an exceptional lawyer to represent a family law matter. 

Victoria's advice was spot on from the commencement of my matter and she was able to achieve a fair and timely resolution despite challenging circumstances. She is an exceptional negotiator, thorough and diligent in looking at all aspects of a case. 

She is also, very supportive and concerned for the well-being of her clients.  I cannot thank Victoria and the team at Clelands enough for all that they achieved on my behalf."

"Victoria, Kate and Kara,

Thank you for all your amazingly hard work over the last 2-3 years. 

The first time we met I was completely broken and overwhelmed fearful of what lay ahead of me. 

Along the way I realised I wasn't dealing with this alone and you would get the job done! 

I've now put myself back together, happier, stronger and wiser."

"We are truly grateful for all your help and support with this ordeal, and very relieved that it’s almost over once the divorce papers come through.

My sister can start a new chapter and live a much happier, safer and healthier life, looking forward to her future, and we couldn’t have done it without you.

We’re very grateful our friend referred you to us and we were able to get through it all with your great expertise and knowledge.

Thanks again Victoria"

"A good friend of mine had mentioned that Tom Walker was a perfect fit for me when I found myself in the position of needing a Lawyer.

Tom has been by my side for 5 years and I am so grateful for his guidance, his knowledge, his empathy and his ability to really understand where you are coming from and what is important to you as far as outcomes and expectations.

No one ever wants to be in a position where you require legal representation but when that does happen, you need a fierce ally, someone you can trust, and someone that will work with you in achieving a desired outcome.

Tom spent a significant amount of time listening to my story and has guided me through one of the most tumultuous times of my life. He has been my light in the darkness and the voice of reason when I have needed one. Tom’s professionalism and knowledge is only matched by his great sense of humour, which helped enormously during some very stressful moments.

Tom will be the only lawyer I use for the rest of eternity!

I feel bad for anyone who doesn’t have Tom as their lawyer"

"From the moment I met Victoria Treloar I felt safe, understood, and supported. I will be eternally grateful to her for all her invaluable hard work and legal wisdom. Victoria kept me well informed, and her communication was excellent throughout one of the most complex family court cases in the history of Australia. Victoria, thank you for your professionalism, integrity, continued support and expertise. I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to her for all the care and concern she continuously demonstrated towards my family and my children. She worked tirelessly to ensure that the law worked in our favour. I cannot begin to express how elite and professional her legal representation was on my behalf. She prioritized me as a client and did everything in her power to ensure a favourable outcome. I feel privileged and graced to have had her as my legal counsel, knowing she was in my corner gave me a sense of calmness and strength that at times I was struggling to find. Regardless of the challenges we faced over the years she secured me and had it under control. The final outcome was a result of her supreme work.

In my humble opinion there is no best family lawyer in the country of Australia"

Divorce can be stressful but I always felt supported by the exceptional knowledge and professionalism of Victoria and am very happy with the outcome we achieved." 

Catherine

"Dear Ben,  Just a short note to thank you so much for all your support and care during our work together.  I know that without your considered good sense, logic and steadying presence I would have found the whole thing so much harder and in fact almost too overwhelming to deal with.  I am pleased to think that you now have more time to help others as competently as you have me.  So, thank you again so much for your such good work." 

"To Ben, With many thanks for your help and expertise over the last three years.  I could not have hoped for better representation."

Carol

"I was recommended to Victoria by my commercial lawyer halfway through my marital matter as I was not happy with the service my previous family lawyer was providing. From the outset I was very impressed with Victoria’s honest and forthright manner. Victoria handled my matter with efficiency and professionalism. She always did what she said she would do and responded to calls and correspondence straight away. I was very impressed with her negotiation skills and the outcome she achieved for me, at what was a very stressful time. I couldn’t recommend Victoria more highly to handle any family law matter."

In my limited experience in dealing with law firms, I have spent many hours trying to understand how to read their legal drafts.

In working with Rinaldo and his team at Clelands, I have found professionals that don’t require me to learn law to understand their agreements. Instead, they say ‘this is what you need, sign here’. It sounds basic, but it has made dealing with a law firm so less stressful for our little company.
