M, Moranbah
Mark, when my brother recommended you he really set me on the right path…from the time Mum and I walked in for the first appointment, I felt confident and at ease that you would take care of things in a professional manner with integrity and concern for me and you didn’t disappoint. I would like to recommend you to my friends and family as well…you all have done a great job
Client's accountant, Mackay
Suzanne, I am pretty sure that if it was in anyone's hands but yours it would not have happened, so our client is well in front by making the decision to engage you to handle the matter.
M, Mackay
Thanks for everything Misty, I'm finally able to get in there and start sorting things out! Cheers again for all the persistence, I am really happy with the outcome!
T, Mt Pleasant.
I was extremely happy with the prompt service, the level of expertise, and the complete dedication I received from Suzanne Brown. She went well above and beyond to get my deal across the line by the required deadline. She was more pro-active, energetic and informative than any other solicitor I've ever dealt with. Suzanne has won herself a life long client in me
