Amazing Service, so helpful no stone unturned. Highly recommended. Thank you guys
I recently reached out to Coastal Lawyers for some legal advice and I was impressed! Clear, concise, friendly and professional. I highly recommend Coastal Lawyers if you’re in need of some help too.
Amazing service – I got in touch with Coastal Lawyers early on a Saturday morning and she was wonderful. She answered questions, sent off emails to make sure the victim’s voice was heard. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a compassionate lawyer who knows her business and cares about her clients.
Thank you so much for all your help Kristal. You were honestly amazing. I can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve done for me. I would highly recommend you to anyone without hesitation. I’ve been through quite a few lawyers and you would definitely be my first choice if I ever got caught up again.
Your professional, friendly and caring approach had me feeling relaxed and safe. Thank you.
Informative, professional and was able to help me understand legal terms clearly
why us?
People generally don’t come to lawyers for criminal law and family law advice in celebration.
But talking to a lawyer also doesn’t need to be overwhelming or scary.
At Coastal Lawyers, we give our client’s frank and practical legal advice. We are human’s, parents and spouses too. We bring our life experience to our role as legal advisers and advocates.
We offer a judgement free and confidential space where you can discuss your legal problems, have your legal questions answered and make informed decisions about your unique situation.
Our clients are busy people who are often juggling work and families. This is why we use technology to make the process of getting legal advice simple and convenient.
We use phone and video calls to regularly keep our clients updated. As well as face to face appointments at our Erina offices when required.
We also use the latest legal technology including online bookings and payment options. Email and text messages to remind clients about their upcoming appointments and court dates. As well as a secure client portal so clients can conveniently view court documents and correspondence.
Early legal advice is often crucial to the success of your matter.
