With over 10 years of operation and 2,275-plus handled cases, Fourlion Legal is a safe pick for clients not after rookies.

They cover plenty of ground when it comes to bankruptcy, such as negotiating with creditors, advising on statutory demands, and insolvency.

Outcome-wise, their record isn’t dodgy. Our interviewees claimed that Sam and her team gave them favourable results, especially in bank-related matters.

Many also appreciate the firm’s focus on breaking down complex terminology and keeping clients updated. Sam has even reached out beyond normal hours, like on Sundays.

Relatively speaking, though, Fourlion isn’t the largest firm in Perth. Dealing with wait times due to limited openings can happen.

First appointments aren’t free either. Some entries offer that luxury.

On the bright side, their normal rates are sensible for Perth. Clients can even opt for phone consultations instead of paying for gas.

Professional, Efficient

We recently used Fourlion Legal for our home settlement and couldn’t be happier with the service! The team was professional, efficient, and kept us informed every step of the way. Everything went smoothly and stress-free. Highly recommend Fourlion Legal to anyone looking for reliable and friendly conveyancing services!

Gave Us Confidence

We recently had to deal with a complex bank loan documents for a property we were buying out of state, and Sam at FourLion Legal honestly made the whole thing so much easier. She even met with us on a Sunday, went through everything in detail, and explained all the loan terms and conditions in a way we could actually understand. You could tell straight away how much she knows about banking and finance law. She pointed out the things we really needed to be aware of, made sure all the paperwork was in order, and gave us the certification our bank needed. More than anything, her advice gave us confidence that we weren’t missing anything important. What stood out the most was how patient she was with all our questions (and we had a lot). Something that could have been overwhelming ended up being really straightforward thanks to her. I’d 100% recommend Sam & the team at FourLion Legal. They really know their stuff and look after you properly.

Rowe Bristol is another seasoned firm, launching in 2002. Their expertise mainly lies in commercial, industrial, and civil work.

Being larger than most outfits gives them an efficiency boost. Responses often come through fast, and around 25 lawyers make up the team, so availability is rarely a problem.

We have to give them bonus points for being straightforward as well. If your situation doesn’t exactly fall in their expertise, they’ll let you know.

As for bankruptcy-specific services, Rowe Bristol has the range. The team can negotiate repayment plans, draft letters of demand, issue statutory paperwork, and, of course, represent clients in court.

That said, customer service isn’t always on point. A few clients have complained about getting their consultations cancelled at the last minute.

They also clock off on Saturdays and Sundays. You’ll find legal teams here that work until the weekend, some even 24/7.

Confident in Their Hands

I highly recommend this law firm. From the very first consultation, their team demonstrated deep legal expertise, professionalism, and a clear strategy tailored to my case. Every step of the process was communicated clearly, and I always felt informed and confident in their hands.

The lawyer was skilled but also incredibly thoughtful and responsive. They took the time to understand the nuances of my situation and fought hard to achieve the best possible outcome. The level of preparation and attention to detail they brought to my case was outstanding, very happy 😊

They were aggressive when need yet always respectful. If you’re looking for a top-tier litigation team that delivers real results, this is the firm to choose.

Thank you for everything sincerely.

Speaking of size and scope, Bankruptcy Advisory Centre checks both. This one is a nationwide firm that specialises in bankruptcy, insolvency, and liquidation cases.

If that’s not enough to make you look, their 30-plus years in the industry might do the trick.

Andrew Bell, the managing director, is often described as “easy to talk to” as well. That’s a big-time plus, especially with how anxious most folks get when facing insolvency or bankruptcy problems.

The phone staff could polish their approach, though. We met some clients who said they were treated a bit rudely over the phone.

It’d also be more convenient if you could hit them up on social media platforms like most competitors.

The silver lining is that first consultations usually don’t cost anything. The round-the-clock availability makes that sweeter.

Plus, they offer lots of free educational materials (think videos and articles) concerning topics such as post-bankruptcy opportunities and asset retention.

Always Reassured Me

Andrew was absolutely amazing in helping me with my bankruptcy. I was very anxious and nervous with the whole process as well as embarrassed, but Andrew was so kind, understanding and compassionate with dealing with myself and guided me through the whole process and even though I called every 5 minutes with questions of worry he always took my calls and always reassured me I was ok. I can’t speak more highly of Andrew and can not recommend him highly enough, he really was amazing !

Caring and So Approachable

I couldn’t be happier with Andrew’s service. He is very professional but also caring and so approachable. I was very nervous to do this and found Andrew by chance. So if your thinking about it don’t be afraid as you’ll be in great hands. Thank you Andrew for making my life much better.

AH2 Legal’s pricing for bankruptcy-related solutions is no daylight robbery. By Perth standards, the rates make sense.

They’re a patient bunch, too, especially if you get Kai or Burt at the end of the line (we did). Both answered queries efficiently, and they simplified legalese into plain English.

Like most, however, they take weekends off. That’s rough if you’re flat out during the weekdays.

On top of that, they’re the newest firm here. And sure, AH2’s 2017 opening wasn’t yesterday, but the other picks have at least 10 years in their resume.

No gripes on scope, though. Debt and insolvency services are on the cards, with “debt after death” solutions as the niche offering.

You don’t have to be in Perth to book them either. In fact, they have clients from Adelaide and Melbourne.

This team is also multilingual. Mandarin, Malay, and English are just some of the languages their lawyers speak.

Quick and Seamless

Kai (Mr Sim) handled my case recently. His work was highly professional. The communications with him was always quick and seamless. He also made extra effort to push work moving forward along the way. The price was competitive. I would certainly go back to him again if needed in future. Highly recommended. 5 star from me!

Very Professional

Previously recommended by a friend, I have since engaged AH2 Legal for services. Very professional and reasonably priced. Highly recommend to anyone, especially to the Chinese community. A big thank U to Mr Guan Kai Sim one of the Partners for his professional service.

We can’t discuss seasoned bankruptcy lawyers without mentioning HHG Legal Group. The firm was founded in 1919, meaning they’ve been around for over 100 years!

And since awards matter for us, they get bonus points for winning 10-plus accolades, including the 2024 ALPMA Excellence in People Award and the 2018 International Advisory Expert Award.

The problem is, they have a history of not calling back despite promising to. Availability can also get tight, as they’re a well-known name.

You must factor in the lack of weekend hours as well.

To their credit, HHG has a stellar history with commercial clients that need help in debt recovery and insolvency. We’re talking about groups or entrepreneurs in sectors such as agribusiness, building, construction, and elderly care.

Even those outside of Perth can ring them up. After all, this firm services the entirety of Western Australia.

Handled My Case with Care

I recently had some documents prepared by Tsitsi Gotora and another lawyer whose name I can’t recall. Despite it being a small task for a lawyer, she handled my case with care, and I am pleased with the outcome and Tsitsi’s professionalism. However, when it comes to the overall customer service of the team, I rate the receptionist, Skye, a 9/10. Many law firms tend to overlook the importance of telephone operators and receptionists, even though they represent the firm to clients. Skye is a highly competent receptionist, and I hope she continues her excellent work.

Clear, Confident Advice

I can’t recommend HHG Legal enough – especially Craig. He was absolutely unbeatable when it came to handling my employment matter. From start to finish, he gave me clear, confident advice, backed me the whole way, and genuinely cared about getting me the best outcome.

Craig’s professionalism mixed with his down-to-earth approach made the whole process far less stressful than I expected. He cut through the noise, explained my options in plain English, and made me feel like I was in the best possible hands.

If you’re looking for legal help, don’t waste time shopping around – HHG Legal are the people you want in your corner.
