CJM Lawyers

My mother and I first engaged Shannon McLaughlin of CJM Lawyers when we were entrusted with the roles of Power of Attorney for my uncle after his Alzheimer's diagnosis. We had no prior experience in this capacity, and Shannon was an invaluable source of comfort and guidance. He helped us through the emotionally challenging process of placing my uncle in a nursing home, managing the sale of his home, and handling both his financial and health affairs. Throughout it all, Shannon remained approachable, patient, and extraordinarily kind, making a difficult time much more bearable for us. After my uncle passed away, we had the pleasure of working with Eva McLaughlin for the probate process. My mother and I adore Eva—she is so thoughtful, kind, and patient. I had no prior understanding of probate or the time it would take, but Eva patiently answered all our questions and provided direction. By this time, my mother was very ill, and we were deeply grateful to have Eva’s support. Even when Eva went on maternity leave, we were seamlessly placed in the care of Jack Raward, who took on the heavier lifting of finalizing probate and gathering the assets. Jack, just like Shannon and Eva, was consistently patient and exceptionally kind. When he encountered something beyond his expertise, he would promptly and professionally refer us back to Shannon. For the final stages of the estate distribution, we worked with Charlie Milligan. Charlie, like her colleagues, was professional, courteous, and kind. She was extremely efficient in her role, offering excellent advice on the final tax return and distribution process. She kept in regular contact, followed up diligently, and demonstrated a thorough knowledge of the process. The entire team at CJM Lawyers was more than just professional and efficient—they were empathetic, patient, and kind at every step. Their warmth and care went far beyond our expectations, and I wouldn’t hesitate to engage them again. They truly go above and beyond to ensure their clients receive the best possible outcome.

Very bad experience with CJM Lawyers. We have been SCAMMED. They charged us conveyancing fees $1000 without providing any conveyancing services. The never really told us what their fees was or the conditions of the fees. On top of this, they did not ask for authority before forfeiting the refund from the land developer. On top of this, they put junior lawyers to handle complaints and when the matter got escalated, they did not do anything to resolve. I have also lodged an ACCC complaint. DO NOT use them for anything.

CJM were very helpful with a property settlement that became quite difficult from the sellers side. Their responses were fast and showed a high level of attention to detail in their work. I couldn't recommend them highly enough

Recently purchased our first property with Nina handling all our conveyancing needs. The process was smooth from start to finish - for a process that I expected to be extremely stressful I was pleasantly surprised and everything was taken care of. Nina was very responsive to both email and calls and took her time to explain all our questions. Extremely happy with the device provided and would happily recommend to others

CJM Lawyers. No one deal or even a dozen deals. Always ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT to deal with ! Nothing is too much trouble and since you are at the end of the funnel, all the issues that have arisen prior mean you need to move faster to make up for delays prior to getting to CJM. Isabel is 10 stars to work with !!
