I highly recommend Dani Sapio for family law matters, she was wonderful to work with and showed a lot of empathy at a time when I needed it most. She was also very knowledgeable and confident in her dealings on my matter and took a huge amount of stress off my shoulders. You won't be disappointed!

Douglas Hoskins Legal is exceptional in both their professionalism and their empathy. Shona Hoskins (Director) demonstrates an outstanding knowledge of both family law and wills/estate planning. She has guided me through incredible stress with her support and understanding, and has been unwavering in her commitment to delivering ongoing support, and absolute clarity with outcomes. I would thoroughly recommend Shona and the team at Douglas Hoskins Legal.

I live local to Douglas Hoskins Legal. It certainly is important to me to deal with a team of professionals who I can totally trust, and are experienced, efficient, reliable and friendly. The team at DHL fulfill all of these important qualities. They have provided me with a wonderful level of service, and friendliness for which I am extremely grateful.

I engaged in their services around 2014 and have only just finished up in 2021 in every long and complicated deceased estate dispute. We won everything we wanted to win. Shona Hoskins was my lawyer and I can’t say enough good things about her and the team at DH legal. They were always professional, kind, happy and organised and they got the job done well. I would absolutely recommend them.

With my Mum passing away, living interstate, and having to sort out Mum’s estate, Bree’s kind, grounded, intelligent and good humoured nature was all I could have asked for. At what was an extremely stressful and emotional time in my life, Bree achieved an excellent outcome, with at best – an uncooperative, and at times outright hostile family member. Bree and her team kept me across what was happening and what needed to be done – all with a minimum of fuss. I could not recommend Bree and the team at DHL highly enough. Caring, grounded advice at affordable rates.

I have just recently been through a long and what normally would be a painful process of separation. The team at Douglas Hoskin, especially Shona and Jordan were absolutely incredible. I was not an easy client to have as I was unorganised and unaccountable but the team did absolutely everything they could to make sure that I got the best outcome possible. They did all they said they would do and got me an amazing result at a very reasonable price. I would very highly recommend them.

My dealings with Shona, Freya and team were nothing short of amazing. My journey was neither easy or uncomplicated however they made me feel confident from the very beginning, putting all my fears aside to ensure we got the best outcome in a not so straight forward situation. They listened without judgement, stepped me through everything from beginning to end and provided unprecedented support over many months and hurdles. I can not thank them enough for the work they do and continue to do for so many like myself. If you are looking for a great firm that are the best in what they do look no further then these guys. 5/5 stars from myself & my daughter. Thank you Team!

Thanks to Bree and her team at DHL for the high level of expertise, professionalism and kindness demonstrated throughout a stressful and traumatic deceased estate dispute. Deciding to have Bree represent me as a client was one of the best choices I could make, and it’s been such a support to me and is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

My 92 year old Mum recently had to update her will and as I have had dealings with Bree Burns at the firm she previouly worked at, was delighted to find her again at Douglas Hoskins Legal. Bree provided excellent service and great compassion for my Mum. I have no hesitation in recommending this firm, and especially Bree, for their professional, but caring approach.

Can’t thank Bree Burns and her team enough. They sorted thru all the will and probate side of my late mother’s estate very professionally and with care. As there were 5 of us to deal with and my mum having dementia for her last few years it was a huge task. All staff treated us with respect and Bree was fantastic to work with. The fees were very reasonable considering the amount of work involved. Can HIGHLY RECOMMEND and will be using them for other legal matters in the future.

I recently used Douglas Hoskin’s services and worked closely with Shona for a personal law matter. I could not recommend her quality services more. She was always clear and prompt and ensured I was in the loop every step of the way. I will absolutely use her services again if required, highly recommend! Thanks again!

Shona, Georgia and her team from our very first meeting were always very supportive, honest, compassionate and empathetic. They always listened to my concerns and allowed me to express my needs. They always made me feel involved in the process, and ultimately got me a result I wasn’t expecting but was very happy with.

We just finished a two year custody dispute relating to our granddaughter and need to thank Jordan and his colleagues for their empathy and persistence throughout the process. My son is grateful for the support and direction Jordan provided him through a difficult time. The end result exceeded expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending Douglas Hoskins Legal.

After accepting the services of two other firms and then declining for various reasons, I finally found this one. I found them to be caring, efficient and affordable. They don’t waste time!! I have already recommended Douglas Hoskins Legal to many. Thank you to Shona Hoskins, Jane Davies and colleagues.

Shona and Georgia assisted a relative overseas with a complicated asset division. Their hard work resulted in a favourable outcome which could not have been achieved without their patience and excellent representation. I would recommend to others as my matter was handled with care and professionalism.

Words can’t really describe how appreciative I am of Freya for all her support, guidance and professionalism throughout my whole process with my family matter. From the beginning, Freya was understanding and empathetic which made me feel confident in trusting her with my custody matter. She always had my children’s best interests at the forefront and the whole process (and outcome) went smoother than we had ever expected! My kids and I will be forever grateful to Freya as she ensured that my children’s voices were heard. You can’t put a price on that! I highly recommend Freya for any family law matters.
