Testimonials from past clients
“This firm really supported me during an emotional and difficult personal time. Rob Dilley is an exceptional family lawyer who took time to listen and action my needs with utter professionalism and haste. He showed incredible communication skills and constantly checked in and kept me informed. I felt supported by the firm at every step of the way and felt like they guided me through this emotional time with great care and commitment. I would highly recommend Catherine Henry Lawyers.”
“I have had nothing but a positive experience with Catherine Henry Lawyers! Navigating the legal world can be super daunting, but my experience felt like having a close friend guide me through every twist and turn. From our first conversation, the girls made me feel like more than just a client. The team was always there, breaking down the jargon into everyday language and always making sure I knew what was happening next. Their approach was personal, not just professional. It felt
like they genuinely cared about me and my situation. They worked tirelessly to get me a fantastic result that helped provide me some closure. If you’re looking for legal advice and want a team that treats you like family, then these are your people. Massive thanks to Abbie, Tahnee, Ella and Rosemary for making a challenging time so much easier!”
“I can’t thank you enough for this amazing result and all of the hard work you and the team have put into my claim. I appreciate it all so much and I am so incredibly happy with the result!”
“I was only 21 years old when I first got in contact with Catherine Henry Lawyers regarding my medical negligence claim. I was young and nervous, also a bit sceptical, but it was hands down the best decision I ever made. Ana, Samantha and Rosemary made me feel so calm throughout the whole experience. I was always informed of what was going on, they were helpful in making me understand things I may not have understood and they really just took the time to listen to me. On top of all of that, I got an outstanding result that exceeded my expectations. I can’t thank the team enough at Catherine Henry Lawyers for all the hard work and effort they put into my claim.”
“I am really pleased with the strategy, experienced approach and planned execution that Rob is advising for this next stage. A great appointment for your team, and I am really blessed to have had such a great team so far.”
“I just want to say thank you and the team so much for all your help and support, I absolutely wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without you.”
“I thank you sincerely for your due diligence in putting together my claim for compensation. The process of seeking compensation is not for the faint-hearted, so the trust I placed in your professional judgement and guidance made it worthwhile. Thank you again!”
“I just wanted to touch base and thank you all so, so much for the support, patience, empathy and care you have shown me throughout this process. This wasn’t pleasant and did bring a lot of uncomfortable moments for me, but your compassion, kindness and determination to progress forward and remain positive really did make it easier. I never felt judged or shamed when dealing with any of you and it’s really important that you all understand and appreciate how much that means to anyone going through a process like this. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.”
“I can honestly say, I would not have been able to speak out if it weren’t for Ana and the other solicitors and support staff at Catherine Henry Lawyers. Their kind guidance and support allowed me to express what I went through in detail, and during the difficult moments, they allowed me to take a break and breathe through it. Not only were the Health Law team down to earth and extremely accepting without judgement, but they were also professional and clear, keeping their position at all times.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for not only hearing my situation but for validating me as a human being, unashamedly and real. I will forever be grateful to Ana and the wonderful team at Catherine Henry Lawyers for taking on my case and giving me a voice. I thank you all.”
“I truly appreciate everything that Tom, Sky, and the Health Law team have done to achieve a successful outcome of my case. Tom has been a wonderful communicator through the entire process and ensured that I understood all of the stages of my case. They all made sure to keep me informed at each stage of the process, which was especially reassuring while dealing with such a sensitive issue like my mental and psychical health. Thank you for all your support, assistance, and advice and I am very grateful and satisfied with the results.”
“I feel I need to let you know about the exceptional conduct of your team handling the Les Blackstock cases. Ana and the team at Catherine Henry Lawyers have been a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dark place. They have held open, honest communication with me from the very start and been very clear in providing me with updates and guiding me through the process. I have honestly felt supported, respected and that my case is in the very best hands and I wanted you to know that I feel very privileged to have had Ana, Samantha, and the Health Law team appointed to my case, who in every instance conducted themselves professionally, empathetically and within the values that represent your firm to the highest standard.”
“I want to express my sincere appreciation for your professional and empathetic expertise when dealing with a matter very sensitive to me. Your team made me feel comfortable by listening to my needs and guiding me through the process, each step of the way. I’m very grateful for your determination to go above and beyond to achieve a successful, timely outcome. I highly recommend Catherine Henry Lawyers; they did an absolutely fantastic job.”
“I have on occasion during my lifetime dealt with about five solicitors, with a few unsatisfactory dealings. The team at Catherine Henry Lawyers are the first solicitors I have had a good rapport with. They acted swiftly to all my requests and at all times were able to be contacted. I have been quite stressed during my divorce situation and they have been patient advising me all the way to a successful outcome. I would recommend Catherine Henry Lawyers to anybody.”
“Please know I will be forever grateful to you and the team and I can’t thank you enough for not only your ongoing support, guidance and advice but for your compassion as well, it meant a lot to me.”
“Thanks so much for your help and thank you to the whole Catherine Henry Lawyers team.”
“I just wanted to thank you and your team for facilitating a successful outcome in my case.”
“Having a team working so hard for me, and with heartfelt determination, helped me not to give in. Thank you!”

“I just want to say a big thank you to all who have been involved in our case and really appreciate the compassion that you and CHL have shown throughout the years.”
“I wanted to thank you personally for your help, care, and efficiency. You have been brilliant at simplifying this process for me and you will be regarded highly in looking back on this massive personal milestone.”
“Thank you so much for all your hard work, such a great outcome and so great that we did not have to attend mediation – makes it so much easier on everyone. I really could not have done it without you guys, no matter how hard it got you were there to see it through.”
“With grateful thanks for everything you have done for us.”
“Sincere thanks for a successful outcome to our case. We will be forever grateful and now look forward to a new chapter in our lives.”
“Thanks for the efficient handling of what could have been quite a daunting conference for us yesterday. Was great to meet the three of you and appreciate the ease, friendliness, informality and approachability you showed us.”
“If you need to prepare or update your estate planning docs… highly recommend.”
“Catherine, now that the litigation is finally finished, I want to thank you again for all you did for me. Life was particularly challenging for some time prior to my meeting you. Your knowledge, skills, wisdom and compassion made a huge difference on many levels.”
“I would highly recommend… to anyone courageous enough to start their own journey of seeking justice while at the same time healing. I certainly didn’t expect the level of support I received.”
“I just wanted to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you. If it wasn’t for your hard work and commitment to me and my son, I don’t know what I would have done without you all.”
“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all the help you have provided to get this matter across the line. I really appreciate it.”
“Thank you for all your work and hanging in with me.”
“Thank you for your wonderful support. I feel I now have justice because you fought for me.”
“Thank you so much for all your time and effort investigating my case for me. So glad to have met you… things can only improve for me from here on in.”

“Words can never express how fortunate we feel having a competent and caring people-focused person to represent us.”
“Thank you very much for all your advice and assistance with the matter. It was an extremely difficult and trying time for me and your professionalism and strength were very much appreciated.”
“I’d like to personally thank you for your efforts over the last three years. Thanks to your advice, skill and effort, our daughter will now be able to buy her own home. The outcome of this matter has made a vast difference to our lives.”
“With sincere thanks for all your patient advice, your preparedness to listen and grasp my fears and financial struggles, your kind assistance and your faith in me.”
“You really were instrumental in helping us to get to a place where we could have our baby in peace and we are grateful for all your help.”
“I would like to express my sincere appreciation for all the hard work you did for my medical negligence case. I felt very fortunate to have a female solicitor as it made it much easier for me to talk about personal (and sometimes, embarrassing) matters to do with my case. I also greatly valued your professionalism, competence and honesty over the years. I would certainly recommend you to others if a need ever arose.”
We help people like you, not big corporations. You may be going through a messy relationship breakup or have had a bad experience with a medical professional that has left you hurt or out of pocket. Perhaps you’re an older person who hasn’t been treated with the dignity you deserve or a caring family member. Maybe you want to make sure that when you die, your property and belongings go to the people you love the most.
Whatever you need, we listen and work hard to help you.
