⭐ 1 Star If I could give zero stars, I would. My experience with Brett Slater Solicitors (Harbourside Legal Services Pty Ltd) has been nothing short of frustrating, unprofessional, and completely irresponsible. I initially engaged them for immigration legal services, expecting expert advice tailored to my profile. Instead, I encountered a constant change of lawyers, making it impossible to get consistent or competent guidance. My case was eventually handled by Marina, who stopped responding for months at a time—a completely unacceptable practice for any legal professional. Every time I followed up, I was either ignored or given vague reassurances that led nowhere. The lack of accountability and professionalism was staggering. After weeks of silence and zero progress, I requested clarification and revisions on their subpar advice letter. Instead of addressing my concerns, they became completely unresponsive and refused to rectify their mistakes. its been 4 months and counting waiting on a revised advice letter. To make matters worse, their legal advice was generic, templated, and did not consider my specific qualifications or the best visa pathways available—despite charging premium fees for a “customized strategy.” They even failed to include key visa options we had previously discussed, proving that they either did not review my case properly or simply did not care. This firm lacks the basic duty of care and due diligence expected from a legal service provider. If you are looking for responsive, knowledgeable, and reliable immigration lawyers, look elsewhere. I would strongly advise against trusting them with something as important as your future and legal status.
Brett Slater were very helpful from the beginning of my partnership visa application to when it got granted. Every time I had a question they were very quick to respond and I always felt re-assured that everything was going smoothly. Having had visa issues in the past, I am very happy that I chose to do my visa journey with Brett Slater. I would highly recommend this firm, I have already referred a friend. Thank you to the whole team for all your help, I would definitely use Brett Slater in the future. Meg
My lawyer Elyse and her team are very good and patient. They helped me immensely in solving my complicated case for applying for a partner visa. I am very grateful for her and the team's assistance. Highly recommended!
