  • David Raits

I chose Northcote Lawyers to assist me with the legal aspects of conveyancing properties on behalf of others. I have also utilized them as conveyancers for many of my investment properties in the Northern suburbs. The best thing about NL is that they don't ask too many questions. If you are paying them they are very happy to bend the rules in your favor which means you can make quite a good profit without the problems of having to include the actual vendor in the sale. They also do not insist on due diligence, ID checks or the vendors directions on proceeds of sale and the like. Perfect if you are planning financial abuse of your partner or other vunerable family members. 5 stars!

  • Aleks

I want to thank Brianna and Peter for handling the sale of our business. It was a stressful experience and Brianna went above and beyond to do everything in her power to facilitate the sale. Throughout the negotiation, she kept us up to date and advised us so we got the best outcome possible. Brianna has extensive experience in this area which was evident when we needed support. As a first time seller, it was reassuring knowing we had Brianna to guide us through this challenging situation. I highly recommend the team if you need legal support. Thank you again for the exceptional service over the past 6 months. We are so grateful

  • Sandra McNabb

I was very pleased with the service provided by Northcote Lawyers and Associates in preparing my will, Enduring Power of Attorney and Medical Treatment Decision Maker documents. I was looked after by Miriam Ungureanu. Miriam was very approachable and helpful and made me feel at ease. She was able to answer all my questions and gave helpful suggestions about the options available to structure the documents. I feel confident that my wishes have been translated accurately into the appropriate legal format. I would definitely recommend Northcote Lawyers and Associates.

  • Margie Fry

Anna Blancato undertook property settlement conveyancing for me. It all happened very smoothly, exactly as she said it would. Anna was professional, clear and timely in her communications and I didn't feel bogged down by unnecessary information. When something like this feels very easy for me, I know there's an effective, competent professional along with their team quietly doing a great job in the background. I highly recommend Anna Blancato for conveyancing.Thanks also to Paralegal Chryzelle.

  • aroyals

I had a dispute with my Grandmother's will last year, they sorted the house issue out but there was also some money in her bank account. Northcote L&A asked if I wanted to pay to have this sorted out in advance for $4000 and pay that as well as the initial cost for the house so I agreed. Then I never heard back from them despite several emails so I essentially paid $4000 for nothing. I would say do not use these guys, but if you absolutely insist then DO NOT pay them in advance.

  • Mary Sako

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, Maryam Mekhail was very professional and efficient. First, she quoted me a price half of what the previous lawyers charged me, not to mention the previous team did nothing to help the case. Secondly, she was so friendly and kept me updated whilst she was on the job, she completed the job in just 2 days and got my case approved from court. It is clear that she is a very intelligent young professional. I really appreciate your support and amazing job lovely.

  • Ismail Kayhan

Anna from Northcote Lawyers ably handled probate of my parent's estate and conveyancing of the sale of their home. The process was smooth and communication with Anna was very easy and clear. I'm so grateful for such attentive and professional service at a very reasonable cost. It really helped my family at a time of grief and big changes to have your good advice, professional legal services and kind attentiveness. Thank you so much Anna and the team at Northcote Lawyers.

  • Tom Savic

Anna Blancato was a pleasure to deal with. My mum is in her mid 80’s and needed extra support and explaination as she had lots and lots of extra questions. We found the team at Northcote Lawyers exceptional, they were efficient and attentive and made the whole process of settlement for two properties effortless. Communication was great and everything went off without a single hiccup. Highly recommend Northcote Lawyers for all your legal needs. Tom

  • Kate Allen

We were really happy with the service we received from Anna Blancato and the rest of the team at Northcote Lawyers on the purchase of our country property. Communication was prompt and informative. No question was too much trouble. The settlement was seamless and the fees were reasonable. Thank you so much for helping us navigate the legalities. Much appreciated! We would certainly return to Northcote Lawyers should we require in the future.

  • David Miskimmin

I recently used Northcote Lawyers for the transfer of title of my property and was thoroughly impressed with their service. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient and responsive to all my queries. Anna was knowledgeable, experienced, and incredibly efficient. The process took place over the Christmas break, and despite this, Anna kept me updated at every stage, which was much appreciated. Highly recommended.

  • Sally Italiano

I found Peter and Mariam, at northcote Lawyer ‘s very approachable and understanding and quiet to the point, which is a good thing , I actually ran out of hope in my case until I found them, it was quite by accident, but two of my other acquaintances /friends had used him in the past, and we are also very happy with his services , it was definitely worth for me - I appreciate all the hard work and help. Thanks again!!

  • Chris Leat

I spotted a Northcote Lawyers ad many years ago for Will writing. I eventually contacted them and they made the entire process extremely easy and straightforward for my wife and I. Very professional service and gave us plenty of opportunities to ask questions, request bespoke arrangements and change detail. Prompt, efficient and experts in their field. Excellent. Many thanks to Miriam and Maggie who looked after us.

  • Quitoriano Family

We engaged Northcote Lawyers in relation to the sale of our property. Miriam was exceptional in helping us to navigate some often complex and challenging matters that arose - professional, efficient, thorough and knowledgeable. Anna was excellent in helping us to manage all of the conveyancing requirements to facilitate a smooth and worry-free settlement. Would highly recommend the Northcote Lawyers team.

  • alex g

I can't recommend this law firm. I have an issue with their billing practices as I was sent a bill for a 'free initial meeting' 3 months after the fact. At no point in the initial meeting was I told I would be charged and I was not provided with a list of their costs until I recieved the quotation the next day. They were also considerably more expensive then the law firm I eventually decided upon using.

  • Austin Chia

We engaged Northcote Lawyers & Associates for conveyancing services for the recent purchase of our new home. From initial contact to the settlement of the property, the services they provided were seamless. We found their associates to be very accessible and responsive and they provided us will full confidence that everything was under control. I have no hesitation in engaging them again in the future.

  • Alice Aram

I engaged Alicia and Northcote Lawyers to help with a Family Law matter. Everyone in the team was highly professional but Alicia was outstanding in the way she guided and supported me through what was an incredibly stressful time of my life. I am delighted with the result and extremely grateful for Alicia’s advice. I would absolutely utilise Northcote Lawyers again in the future should the need arise.

  • Kate Wells

Miriam and Anna assisted us with the settlement of our property. They were professional and prompt throughout the entire process. Miriam was very helpful and knowledgeable when we faced some minor challenges. We have recommended Northcote Lawyers to our friends and family as we felt we had five star service and we were extremely happy throughout the entire process. Thank you so much Miriam and Anna.

  • Marti Cuatt

This is the second time I've worked with Northcote Lawyers and both experiences have been excellent. The company has friendly staff who know their stuff and they offer great, practical advice. Overall, they're prompt, efficient and do what they say they'll do. One other plus from my experience is the pricing structure is very transparent too. I can highly recommend Northcote Lawyers.

  • Melissa Di Nuzzo

There is always uncertainty and doubt when buying a house but using Anna and the team at northcote lawyers for our conveyancing eliminated any hesitation. She was fantastic, our settlement happened without any complications whatsoever, communication was always happening and as a result we felt so valued as a client. Highly recommend Anna for your conveyancing needs.

  • Ted Woodward

I have used Northcote Lawyers twice now for a conveyancing job (one sale and one purchase) and once to arrange to update title details. I would highly recommend their services. In particular, communication with Anna B was prompt and efficient, and they stuck with their standard fee despite some minor quirks (I purchased off-the-plan under a nominee clause)

  • Maria Priestley

On behalf of my sister & I, we express our sincere appreciation and gratitude to Miriam and Anna for your professional assistance in dealing with settling the estate of out late mother and for the sale of our family home. The process was made extremely seamless through your friendly and accessible manner and we thank you greatly during this difficult time.

  • Anne Hastie

I recently used Northcote Lawyers when purchasing a property. This company’s conveyancing services are excellent and all aspects of the process were handled very professionally. Written and verbal communications were prompt and clear, and it made what can be a stressful time for a home buyer as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend this law firm.

  • Ant

My initial dealing with this Law firm was satisfactory but when I requested to make an update to my Will, the service I received was very poor. I had to contact the practice twice regarding the matter and did not receive a reply. I have since taken my business to another Law firm, who have assisted me in a prompt and professional manner.

  • Glen Van Twest

Miriam Ungureanu recently helped us with the probate and finalisation of my mother's estate. Throughout the process, she was calm, measured and provided a highly professional and efficient service. It was so reassuring to be in such safe, and caring, legal hands. I would highly recommend using Miriam, and Northcote Lawyers.

  • Jane Kennedy

Anna was so very helpful and responded quickly when we needed her help to explain things. We had quite a stressful time with our downsizing while Peter was seriously ill. Anna really helped us to navigate through the process and kept us informed all the way. There are no words good enough to describe how wonderful she is.

  • Roderick Ash

Ms Miriam Jerman provided me with legal services for a will and power of attorney.

  • Janusz Sysak

I would be happy to recommend Northcote Lawyers to others, based on our experience.

  • Helen Astarte

I am so pleased with Miriam and Anna’s excellent and highly capable advice and support in helping me with my mum’s estate.

  • Marie Lyova

These guys are complete Mavericks. The have zero accountability, loose documentation and will probably reply to this saying I was never a client. Ethically completely bankrupt. Try elsewhere if you want professional and accountable lawyers and conveyancers. I would give no stars if I could.

  • Niamh Moynihan

The team were great to work with and supported us through a complex settlement. We received regular updates and I always felt I could pick up the phone to ask a question. We refer our friends to Northcote Lawyers and Associates when they ask who they should engage when buying a house.
