WMM Law

"It is with deep regret that I have to give one star to WMM Law, I was given an estimate of costings and when I finally got the final invoice/account the cost was double the estimate. Unfortunately the legal document that WMM Law were assigned to produced on my behalf was filled with spelling, typos, grammar mistakes and spelt the main name wrong and made content mistakes in key areas which I had to point out and rectify. Asking for reasons why "sundaries" are always on every area of very small jobs and not following instructions, not properly informing if the bill was blowing out and giving late invoices /accounts despite asking on several occasions to update me if the bill/account was exceeding the estimate/budget. I had to stop dealing with this law firm. I was getting nowhere and costing me so much. There are other areas I am deeply disappointed with but will not aired them in public. I am very sad and distressed by the whole experience. I paid their invoice which I felt was excessive, I did manage to obtain a very small discount with the partner, which was something, and I want to acknowledge that to be fair to all parties."

"I have worked with Kimberley Martin and Casey Goodman for a number of years both professionally and personally and their knowledge, service and attention to detail is outstanding. They are exceptional lawyers who I would happy work with time and time again and regularly refer my own clients to them."

"After a 42 minute conversation of which it was clear there was no further instructions given for them to act and after I sent a email confirming that they would not be able to help me from what they told me I received a bill for just under $1200.00. No real advice given only some confirmation of what I was already aware. I complained 3 times once in writing the other 2 times over the phone and finally received a response with a lesser charge to $800.00. It’s reasons like this people dislike lawyers and the astonishing and some what creative methods they use to charge you for there time. Look elsewhere for advise and get a upfront quote before considering engaging with this firm. Read other reviews I know I wish I had."

"They are competent and thorough but charge exorbitantly. Miniscule tasks such as reading a short email, talking to a colleague, sending an invoice, etc are all billed separately for at least one 6 minute block, even if there are a succession of tiny tasks done on the same day. Each 6 minute block is around $45 or more. An email and its response can easily be over $100, with nothing in the least bit complex. They seem to either refuse to give an estimate, or give an estimate where they then go well over the top end, though to be fair in one case they charged according to the agreed maximum, despite time exceeding the estimate, and in another case they gave $500 discount although the charged cost still exceeded the upper limit of the estimate by $700. I know all lawyers bill in 6 minute blocks, but they don't all break everything down to the smallest granularity to bill separately for each aspect of a task. Arranging and having 1 meeting for 90 mins cost $600+ while setting up the time and talking to a junior colleague, and taking out the file managed to come to a further $600+! As mentioned, they are however knowledgeable and thorough, and did save me about $25,000 for a combined cost of something like $5000. I would only use them if it was a complex matter where the stakes were high enough to make the costs acceptable."

"Very professional lawyers, highly recommended."
