Posted on Charles NelsonDecember 16, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Harris Tate has been providing trusted, high-quality legal services to my family for over 30 years. Most recently, Danielle and Davina handled the conveyancing for both my property sale and purchase, and they were absolutely outstanding. Throughout what became somewhat of a challenging and unpredictable process, they left no stone unturned and managed everything with professionalism, care, and attention to detail. I genuinely could not have asked for more from them. Thank you to Grant Harris and the exceptional team at Harris Tate for consistently delivering first-class legal advice and service to our family, it is always very much appreciated!Posted on megan ramsbottomJuly 29, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can highly recommend Leone and her amazing team at Harris Tate. They were personable and empathetic during a very emotional time yet they were professional and delivered an excellent outcome that far exceeded my expectations.Posted on Frances McAdamMay 15, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience dealing with such professional people!! Would recommend to others. Also, Go Leone! I needed a lot of help understanding the process of what I needed to do and she was there to assist me every step of the way 🙂Posted on Linda ClarkeOctober 2, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My sister and I have used Harris Tate's services for a number of years. Recently we reviewed and renegotiated some contracts/agreements. Michelle Igasan and her capable team were professional, prompt, and showed great attention to detail. Michelle picked up things we had missed, and she had our backs throughout the whole process. We highly recommend Harris Tate.
