Sale of a business
Michael Lim was fantastic in helping us with the contract and the sale of our café. He was professional, knowledgeable and made the whole process much easier for us. Michael explained everything clearly, responded to our questions quickly and made sure everything was handled properly from start to finish. Selling a business can be stressful, but we felt confident knowing Michael was looking after the legal side for us. We really appreciate all his help and would highly recommend Michael to anyone needing assistance with a business sale or contract.

Building defects claim
Thank you to Maysaa, Guy and your teams for the support you have provided throughout the defects claims process and during the rectification works. Your guidance, responsiveness, and commitment have been invaluable, and we are truly grateful for the effort and expertise you have contributed in helping finalise this matter. Thank you again for your continued support, dedication, and partnership. It has been a pleasure working with you throughout this process.

I've had a great experience with Michael and the team at Project Lawyers. Michael is professional, knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain things clearly. He has assisted me with several matters over the years and has always been responsive and focused on finding practical solutions. I really appreciate the level of service from Michael and his team and would happily recommend them.

Compulsory acquisition
I chose Project Lawyers and in particular Maysaa Parrino to assist me through the complex process of a compulsory acquisition. I found Maysaa an exceptional lawyer but most importantly a direct and strong communicator. Persistence, team work (thank you Matt for all your work as well) has provided the keys to achieve the best outcome possible. Thank you.

Compulsory acquisition
I engaged Project Lawyers earlier this year for a compulsory acquisition project. Maysaa, Matt and Michael were exceptional. I was super impressed with the professionalism of everyone within Project Lawyers and would not hesitate to recommend them.
