I found Michael and his team to be highly professional and knowledgeable in a very complex legal matter presenting various options and strategies along the way that were explained fully. This was the first legal team that I had encountered that really cared about the outcome for their client as if it were their own, showed empathy, and fought every step of the way. Michael was always available after hours and on weekends as was the barrister Scott Moon to expedite timelines and optimal outcomes. I highly recommend the team at My Legal Crunch and am so grateful for their exceptional service in our time of need.

Professionalism, compassion, bravery, honesty and unbiased legal advice I received from Veronica Toth, Michael Rodrigues and Scott Moon could not be overstated or praised enough! In my scariest darkest moments I was treated with such human qualities as kindness, reassurance and was given very clear user friendly explanations of some aspects of a complicated legal matter. I felt confident sharing any relevant details without a fear of being judged, I felt 100% better after each conversation/discussion I had, I felt protected.
I would highly recommend this legal team in any legal family matters
Ekaterina Zazubina
I googled many lawyers and read all reviews as most will. I was so confused. Reading through my legal crunch lawyers review was some what different from the test. I was right, when I made my initial enquiry by phone I felt that someone was actually listening. The conversation was very professional and the solicitors was so nice and down to earth. She quoted me for the service that was required and was firm with initial verbal quotation. When I had other quotes from other firms it was extremely scary as I kept getting told the quote may Increase considerably. That was the last thing I needed.
My requested service was finalised with no hassles what so ever. Amazing how I didn’t have to call at all for any updates as i was called and updated. The fees was amazingly reasonable and no hidden increases. It was all done on line I didn’t have to even visit their office. That’s what I call professionalism. I have no hesitation what so ever to recommend this wonderful caring team. Thanks to all at my legal crunch lawyers.
