“Brendan Bourke and his team, namely Melissa Arndell worked with me for over 18 months. The professionalism, care and respect I received from them are second to none. Whilst dealing with Bourke legal through one of the toughest times of my life and with the insurer making my progress that much tougher, Melissa not only got me a better outcome than I had expected. Melissa was very timely with her responses to my questions and encouraged more questions if needed. I am very happy with the Bourke Legal team.”

“I didn’t believe I would ever require the services of a solicitor- but things happen. I found Lisa Robertson to be extremely professional and contactable at all times. I mixed a doctors appointment up at one stage and was trying to contact Lisa and Mikaela at 8am. Both contacted me and sorted things out and Mikaela was on her day off. I asked a million questions- twice I think. Can’t thank them enough for their help and patience. Would highly recommend Bourke’s Legal to anyone going through a tough time. Or just if you need help.”

“I Highly recommend Lawyer Jessica Prasser from Bourke Legal for workers comp matters. The communication from Jessica and her Legal secretary Megan Proctor was faultless. I received regular updates, quick detailed responses to my many queries and I felt heard and understood throughout the whole process. This firm and these ladies made a difficult process a lot more straight forward. They genuinely cared about the end result for me and delivered on everything they sought for me. Very trustworthy and upfront with fees laid out from the beginning and no hidden charges. Very satisfied client!”

“Pania and team of Bourke Legal worked diligently through my complex mental health workers compensation appeal after EML had rejected it. Patiently and with care led me through all the steps, cognisant of my injury throughout the process. Represented me at conference/arbitration with barrister who was very knowledgeable and well briefed. The team successfully negotiated a settlement of ongoing compensation so that I may recover. Highly recommend Pania Watt, her high calibre team and resources. Thank you for achieving the right outcome!”
