Nicholes Family Lawyers

DO NOT GO HERE. It will cost you a fortune. They tried to charge me more than $20,000 for a mediation. I never even met with them in person and the bills were huge every month. I paid half their fees at my new lawyers who spent more time with me and genuinely cared about my case.

I am a partner in a global law firm. We do not practice in Family Law. When I think Family Law my first point of referral is Nicholes Family Law. I have had excellent feedback, from friends and clients I have referred, in relation to the quality and the friendliness of the services provided by NFL. NFL founder and managing partner, Sally Nicholes, is a highly regarded practitioner. She is also a philanthropist and a champion of diversity. It is upon these foundations that NFL has built a culture of trust and generosity and a firm providing first class advice and service in the area of Family Law.

Nicholes family lawyers are the best in Melbourne. Ketura and Catherine helped me with my international child custody case. They prepared my affidavit like rockstars and gave me the best head start in the battle to take my son back home with me (My son and I are victims of family violence) They will fight for you. Thank you so much for all your help. What a team of great lawyers!!!!

My matter was extremely complex, and we had to endure significant challenges as a result of the actions of another party. At all times, the legal professionals at Nicholes Family Lawyers were very proactive in both protecting and promoting my interests, promptly attending to issues which were causing me significant stress, ensuring that positive outcomes were obtained for me. The level of service, quality of the advice and representation given to me was excellent. I commend them.

If you are looking for lawyers who will ensure they get the best possible outcome for your case then Nicholes are your best choice. We talked to a few lawyers before we discovered Nicholes and none of them were interested in helping us and gave us incorrect information about my partner's rights. My partner required lawyers for a family law case and over the months we worked with them we received impeccable service. They were always honest about their advice and worked hard to ensure that my partner's rights were acknowledged. They were genuinely interested in helping my partner and went above and beyond to assist us however they could. They are very good at understanding what you want working with you to achieve that. Special thanks go to Alastair, Nadine, and Rebecca who my partner worked with extensively on the case. We would not have achieved such a positive outcome without your help. 10/10 would recommend and would use them again in the future.

I worked with Rebecca Dahl for a short period with another lawyer that I had come across with from a previous firm. I would stay very clear from engaging with Nicholes due to the way in which they itemise the account. Rebecca charged me to direct the lawyer I had come across with who knew my case inside and out and in my view, these tactics are very underhanded. After leaving Nicholes I was to find out they are well known for their sly charging techniques among colleagues. At the time, I was a single parent who was not working experiencing financial and emotional abuse from the father of my child. I felt vulnerable and needed a firm to trust and rely on but in the end I and felt very exploited by them. Be very wary.

My partner and I went through the odyssey of Family Court, 4 plus years, Nicholes Family Lawyers were with us every step of the way. Kind courteous, professional, experienced, committed and we got the best result possible. A profoundly difficult job handled with care and consideration. Highly recommended a:)

To Nicholes Family Lawyers,The last year has been one of the most testing experiences for me, my daughter and my sons life. The guidance, knowledge and support provided by Nicholes were pillars in keeping me and my children safe. Having the help of Rebecca, Catherine, Lynn and Sally was the best decision I made.Nicholes always had my children and myself as No.1 priority, they gave me strength to stand up for myself when I needed it the most and provide me with critical knowledge that help me navigate through the stormiest seas. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome.Rebecca, Catherine and the team at Nicholes Family Lawyers......Thank you.

Rebecca Dhal and Alastair Noakes are top notch in the field of Family Law. They are discerning, empathetic, highly experienced, very professional with excellent customer service, understand fully how traumatic the court system can be and have always acted with utmost integrity. They took on a very complicated and challenging case (victims of family violence) and they have been very honest, diligent and wonderful with communication. Their support team and the barristers they work with are all top notch, professional and experienced. We are grateful to have such a positive experience with people who actually care about the safety and security of their clients. We are highly satisfied with the outcome considering that they were dealing with a lot of complex issues. We wish the very best for Alastair who has put in a lot of hard work. His experience in Child Protection counts a lot and his intuition is spot on. We also wish the very best for Rebecca Dhal as her heart is in the right place. They came highly recommended by others and we are so grateful to have them represent us. They are definitely an outcomes-based organisation with real hearts.
