We were lucky enough to encounter Transitional Legal when we received a grant for 102NA funding, and were blessed to work with Lilly and Sahm. While a 102NA grant is usually a roll of the dice that ends in a solicitor doing the bare minimum, Lilly and Sahm were the exact opposite and did everything they could to get our matter over the line and ensured no stone was left unturned. Lilly and Sahm were motivated with a keen sense of justice that allowed them to stick to the facts and not cave to the insanity of the curve balls the other side were trying to throw to distract them. We will forever be grateful for Lilly’s wonderful sense of humour and ability to always meet us where we were at, which did wonders for stabilising our nerves at every turn. Lilly had an incredible ability to diffuse every fear and worry we had. Both Lilly and Sahm were positive and pragmatic, very reassuring and compassionate whilst also managing expectations through each step. We were pleasantly surprised by their ability to understand the depth and breadth of the case that had been two and a half years in the making in such a short period of time. We were grateful they fact checked us to make sure everything we had said was accurate and could be proved, which is an invaluable skill to have that appears to escape the reach of a large majority of professionals in family law. They refused to allow the other side to get away with their antics and refused to be intimidated by the other side’s postering, which I have no doubt was to cover up the inconsistencies and knowledge gaps on the other side, and did a wonderful job at calling the bluff every step of the way. Sahm has a unique expertise in not only the specifics of the Family Law Act, but a deep understanding of caselaw that allowed her to apply caselaw properly to our matter to get the outcome we had been aiming for all along, while maintaining a quiet confidence that appeared to unsettle the other side when their fantastical commentary was challenged. We were amazed at Sahm’s ability to be steady in the face of the chaos coming from the other side and not flinching or moving from a position she knew was right and refusing to negotiate against herself. Sahm’s expertise in representing us at the Judicial Settlement Conference allowed us to “settle” on an outcome that was more favourable than what we asked for before the proceedings even started. I have no doubt that any lawyer that has been given the gift of learning under Sahm will be brilliant, confident, unwavering, and compassionate. Both Lilly and Sahm are truly beautiful and wonderful people who have taken on the enormous task of dedicating their lives to helping the everyday person to navigate one of the most technically and emotionally complex experiences that a person could have in having to wade through family law, and in particular, through the court system. We will forever be grateful for what both Lilly and Sahm have done for us.Posted on Google![]()

I cannot thank this Roger and this firm enough for their outstanding work in assisting with an urgent child recovery order. From the moment I contacted them, they treated the matter with the urgency, professionalism and compassion it deserved. They were incredibly knowledgeable, kept me informed throughout the process, and provided clear advice during an extremely stressful time. Thanks to their prompt action and dedication, my child was safely returned within a week. Their commitment to achieving the best outcome for families is exceptional, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing experienced and compassionate family law representation.Posted on Google![]()
