Working with a lawyer is not only about their understanding of the law but the ideal relationship requires your lawyer to also offer practical and pragmatic advice. Additionally, it is important for your lawyer to be contactable and to understand your risk profile with regards to the matter being dealt with. In my dealings with Mark and his team at Boss Lawyers, I have found all of the above to be true.

Mark and the team provided exceptional advice and client service. They readily provided advice outside of office hours which we needed and really appreciated. Our matter was resolved on time and with the outcome we were looking for and accordingly we would not hesitate to use Mark and Boss Lawyers again and can highly recommend them.

I am the treasurer of a body corporate that has engaged Boss Lawyers for advice on legal issues in relation to management rights and what the committee considered to be breaches of the caretaking agreement. I believe that the advice from Boss Lawyers on both a strategic and legal level has ended up producing an outcome for our scheme that is far more palatable to that which we would otherwise have had. I can recommend Boss Lawyers to any body corporate with similar issues. Emmanuel Sarris, Treasurer The Wellington Body Corporate for East Brisbane

I highly recommend Mark Harley from Boss Lawyers, he provided me with exceptional advice and a proposal for the best course of action which resulted in a positive outcome I didn't believe was possible. Mark is a skilled and accomplished litigator who cares for his clients and does the extra yards to ensure satisfactory outcomes.

I was happy with the work Mark did for me. He was thorough, pragmatic and very commercial in his advice. He did not over complicate matters. He was also cost conscious and very responsive to my needs.
