I can’t help but heap give massive praise on the entire team at AFL Kordos Lawyers. They probably have the hardest job in the world. Not only have to navigate a strategic path but more importantly have the emotional intelligence to deal with the swings of a client like myself. I felt confident as soon as i had Kordos on board after leaving another firm who were substandard in comparison. The patriarch is the best in the business and it was so enriching knowing he was on board. George Kordos was absolutely brilliant throughout. From the mundane to the magnificent he handled all matters with such acumen and aplomb. Even when he could not attend I was attended by Andrew Andrianakkis who provided the same level of assurance.s. Amber who worked behind the scenes giving support to both George and Andrew. When my anxiety was sky high it was his calmness liaising with our barrister that provided the way forward that was suitable for both sides. You never get everything in a negotiation but I am extremely grateful how the team of AFL Kordos conducted themselves and more importantly reached an outcome for the kids and I with dignity and care. Could not recommend them highly enough. Thanks again AFL I would highly recommend this amazing team for any support and guidance in any family dispute matter.
Anybody going through a separation is not emotionally easy and that is why you need people around you that really care. I was introduced to Bill Kordos about 6 years ago.. yes it took 6 years to reach a settlement. With false AVO (which we won) and been displaced from your own home, it was not easy however Bill understood and assured me that I could contact him at anytime 24/7 if I needed someone to talk to and he was true to his words taking my calls even in the weekends. I had a very complicated asset portfolio and he assigned me Amber and Rhiannon and later James. The team was absolutely amazing. Amber also went beyond her call of duty to check on me and was always available even for the smallest of things. Even though they are no winners in the family court especially for the breadwinners however after a lengthy court battle and a 5 day trail, we were still able to salvage a reasonable result from the sinking ship. Lawyers are never cheap and if one can resolve it among themselves then that is the best outcome however the family court system is completely broken and the amount of discretionary powers that judges have is a legal minefield. That is why one needs to have experts in their corner from day one and AFL Kordos comes with the highest recommendation. '
I highly recommend Andrew Sauer and cannot stress enough how important it is to find the right representative during this tough time. My divorce court proceedings went on for over 3 years as both property and parenting matters were quite complex involving third parties etc, Andrew was assigned to my case for about 2.5yrs whilst with his previous firm. With Andrew's professionalism and guidance, we were able to settle outside of court, avoiding further legal costs. When Andrew moved, without a doubt I had to follow him across and so I did to AFL Kordos Lawyers. I believe that speaks volumes, that I have entrusted Andrew with my case and want no one else to represent me. Andrew has been with me every step of the way and I insisted for him to be with me at every appearance, with his calm and collected nature, he helps ground me. There have been times when I'm overwhelmed or in fight mode but gratefully for Andrew, I was able to feel safe and can make the right decisions. He never fails to provide me with informative advice, options and ensure I'm aware of the outcomes. I am pleased with the depth of knowledge that Andrew has and his attention to detail, he is very thorough and has my best interest. We worked really well together and communication was clear. Even though my matters have settled for now, I still continue to engage Andrew for ongoing advice should something comes up. I write this review with absolute sincerity and cannot thank Andrew enough, not only for his professionalism but for his understanding and empathy through my journey.
I have been dealing with George and Bill for over 5 years now. After being pulled back through more court cases due an unpleasant ex. George & Evan rallied around my case to ensure I could be reunited with my children. Due to the uncertainty and many loop holes in the system this caused many delays. Those delays never caused George to miss a step, Infact pushing harder for results. Within this whole period Brought many challenges, which included extra court cases which would then bring my new family & home into the firing line. Again George rallied around me to ensure I was okay emotionally / financially. George helped me win across all aspects of all cases, and now can say chapter closed. I can not thank George and the team enough, and always am quick to highly recommend them to all my family and friends. Also thanks to Amber who’s always on hand for the last minute changes or questions. Always turning up to work ready to take on all challenges without a fuss.
I don't know where to start, but I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Evan and Yianni. I personally have gone through one of the most challenging times in my life, I wasn't sure where to turn or how I would get through it. I was recommended and passed onto Evan and the team at Kordos Lawyers by one of my work colleagues. Engaging with Evan was the best decision I had made as I was able to get my life back on track. Yes, there was challenging times during the process, but Evan ensured I felt comfortable, and I knew they everything that could be done was getting done. I owe my future to Evan and the team at Kordos lawyers.
