I have dealt with Macrossan & Amiet for 2 different commercial business matters and both times were a great experience. I most recently had Alex Woods represent our company and her thorough approach to what we needed was second to none. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex and the team at Macrossan & Amiet for any legal representation.

Hired Andrew Telford & Carly Hughson to act for myself and my wife on a somewhat complex investment property service. As an ex Solicitor myself I was impressed with their attention to detail and prompt professional service. Shout out to Calrly who was super friendly (great phone manner. Wow!).

Macrossan very professional from start to finish. My Hubs used Mr Gene and his lovely team couple years ago and just wanted to express on a review. There is an old phrase that everyone is familiar with "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth" you will get 100% outcome. Documents received and communication straight away, always on the ball working on the case. Was recommended by someone else, as one of the best law firms in the region and was very satisfied and happy with the recommendation. I would like to thank Mr Gene who worked on our case very highly recommended Macrossan & Amiet Solicitors.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Dyane and Eillenette from Macrossan & Amiet Solicitors during the purchase of our first property, and I cannot recommend their services highly enough. From start to finish, Dyane made what could have been a daunting process feel seamless and stress-free.Right from our initial consultation, Dyane took the time to explain every step of the conveyancing process in a way that was easy to understand. They were incredibly patient, answering all our questions—no matter how small—without hesitation. This level of attentiveness gave us the confidence that we were in capable hands.Throughout the entire process Dyane demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. They were diligent in reviewing contracts, ensuring that all necessary checks were completed promptly, and keeping us informed of any developments. Her proactive approach helped us avoid potential pitfalls and made the negotiation process with the seller straightforward.What truly stood out was Dyane’s and Eillenette’s commitment to ensuring we got the best outcome. She was always available via phone or email, providing timely updates and reassuring us whenever we had concerns. Their friendly demeanour and genuine care for our situation made it feel like we were more than just clients; we felt like valued partners in the process.Thanks to Dyane’s hard work, we were able to complete the purchase on time and with minimal hassle. They ensured that everything went smoothly at the closing, and we left with a sense of accomplishment and excitement about our new home.I wholeheartedly recommend Dyane to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable solicitor. Their expertise, communication skills, and commitment to client satisfaction are truly exceptional. My husband and I are incredibly grateful for their support in making our dream of homeownership a reality! Thank you, Dyane for everything!

They are working on my parents CTP injury claim. I think they are doing a good job so far. Professional and kind people representing my parents gives me peace of mind. I will update this after settlement.Edit: All went well. The insurance companies are vile animals when it comes to how they treat a claimant, but the M&A team in Mackay were great.Thank you for looking after my parents.
