Property transactions in Newcastle sit at the centre of the work described by clients of this practice, with wills, estate planning, family law and employment matters also featuring in repeat instructions. Purchasing a first home is recalled as a smooth passage, where questions met with ready answers and the process felt less daunting than expected.

I recently used Hunter Legal Conveyancing and couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with professionalism, efficiency, and excellent communication. The team made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and straightforward. They kept me informed every step of the way, were always available to answer my questions, and ensured everything was completed on time and without any issues. Their attention to detail, expertise, and genuine care for their clients really sets them apart. I felt confident knowing my matter was in such capable hands. I would highly recommend Hunter Legal Conveyancing to anyone buying or selling property and will definitely use their services again in the future. Thank you, thank you for making the process so easy! Forever grateful!

Recently purchased a house in Rutherford, the entire process seemed very daunting and due to being first time home buyers, my wife and i were very ignorant to the entire situation. Hunter Legal and Conveyancing, specifically Nicole, (however no doubt her team were involved too), made the entire transition seamless, and answered all my questions without hesitation.

I received excellent service from my conveyancer, Sophie Conicella throughout both the sale of property and the purchase of my new home. Despite unexpected issues arising from a third party, she collaborated well, remained proactive, and professional with clear communication at every stage. Her expertise, experience, attention to detail, and ability to manage challenges effectively and timely helped alleviate the stress.

Couldn’t have been any more happier with the service that we received from Sophie & Jasmine. Nothing was a problem, always had time to explain and always keep us up to date with what was going on. Well done guys Highly recommend
