Satbir, with Cooper’s support, has been incredibly understanding and supportive throughout my complex case. Their strategic approach, coupled with constant follow-ups and negotiations to resolve parenting and financial matters while keeping me informed, has been invaluable. Thank you for your assistance during this very challenging time.
Lawyers with real love and empathy, who would have thought it was even possible to find such a firm? Coulter Legal ticked all the caring boxes for our family's dispute. We Highly recommend their services.
Nicole and Ember were amazing with their advice and guidance through my experience of separation, not once did I feel that I could not contact them or second guess the advice that they gave me. I would highly recommend Nicole to anybody that is in the same situation in future. Everybody that we dealt with at Coulter Legal were so professional and would always welcome you with a warm greeting. Thanks again Mel
I'm grateful for Satbir's assistance in obtaining custody of my child. Satbir is an exceptional family court lawyerIf you're experiencing a similar issue, I highly recommend seeking Satbir's Expertise
I used Coulter for my estate documentation. Senior Associate, Priya Silwaraju, assisted me with drafting my Will and Executor documents. She is knowledgeable and gave helpful advice, making a daunting process extremely easy.
I have spent two years working with James Maxwell in the area of Family Law. He has not only been a pleasure to work with, but provided exceptional advice and helped me achieve my desired outcome in the Family Court. Family Law is a daunting area to navigate, which is why I would recommend James to anyone in need of assistance in this field.
Satbir has been by my side for the last few years, helping me through my divorce and then ongoing challenging co-parenting matters.Satbir has always obtained the highest level of professionalism, patience, support, understanding, and empathy.He has always kept things on track and moving forward to achieving the best possible outcome and has always made sure the children's well-being was the priority.Satbir and Stacey have both gone above and beyond for me , while always maintaining professional, kind, caring guidance. I cannot thank them enough for the support they have offered me through a really challenging time in my life.
Applied online using the questionnaire provided on the website for family law matters. Found it very thorough and detailed. Had a 30min free consultation with the Satbir (family lawyer) he was very helpful and provided me with the answers I need.This year I started the process of financial settlement. I contacted Satbir to get the process started. Satbir delt with the matter with upmost respect and care.I found the process as it took longer than Satbir and I expected, ran surprisingly smoothly! Satbir’s experience shows with the way he corresponded with me and the other party.I give all the recommendations to anyone that is looking for a family lawyer to Coulter Legal, Satbir and the teams in the office!!
I highly suggest contacting Coulter Legal first for anyone requiring representation for Family Law matters.James, Jessica and the Coulter Legal team provided me with an outstanding quality of service and communication on a family law matter.My circumstances were fairly unique and had tried to work with another Solicitor firm based in Geelong prior, whom left me very cold in regards to hearing my needs.The service provided was nothing but professional yet felt personalised and every interaction was a pleasure to be a part of.Thank you to all at Coulter Legal.Scott A.
Satbir and Stacey were marvellous. They calmed me down and showed that they knew what they were doing. Then, they delivered what they promised.
James has been an absolute pleasure to work with. During extremely difficult times for myself and my children he has always maintained focus on what was in our best interests. Even when I was unsure, scared and frustrated, James always explained every step in minute detail to remove any of my concerns . He was always readily available either via phone, email or face to face. His dedication and support to myself and my children will always be appreciated. My family will forever be thankful to James for his support and guidance.I would highly recommend James and his team to anyone who is seeking support with Family Law concerns.Thank youJaye & Family

Another great experience working with Coulter Legal who provided great and timely advice. What was a daunting experience was made easy and seamless, thank you to Rachelle for all her assistance.
I engaged Lauren to prepare my first Will and Powers of Attorney and expected it to be a daunting exercise. However, with Lauren's guidance, the process was streamline and efficient. She was attentive to my numerous queries and kept me informed at every step.
I am grateful for the assistance I have been provided by James Maxwell and the team supporting him. My queries and concerns were heard and responded to in a prompt, caring and professional manner. I am very satisfied with the outcome of what was a long, drawn out and at times stressful process, and felt I was supported and advised in a knowledgeable and ethical manner.I highly recommend James and the team at Coulter Legal.
Satbir is an exceptional lawyer and human being. He is able to skillfully navigate family law matters in a pragmatic way that always honors the unique needs of the children and families he represents. I can't speak highly enough of Satbir. I will be forever grateful for the positive child focused outcomes he has achieved and the compassionate way he conducts himself.
Extremely Happy with the professionalism and dedication I received from Satbir Singh in relation to the situation I found myself in.His expertise and advice has been greatly appreciated.I would strongly recommend him and his firm.Feeing very relievedHeather Ennor
Satbir has been a great ally in what has been a very protracted experience to settle parenting and financial matters during separation. He has gone above and beyond for me on several occasions, making sure everything has been as smooth as possible, and important to note in legal circles, I’ve always felt that the fees have been very reasonably applied - which did not appear to be the case for my partner’s legal representative.
From my very first meeting with Satbir, it was evident that he approached his work with genuine care and empathy. Satbir took the time to listen to my concerns and understand the complexities of my situation, providing guidance and reassurance every step of the way.Satbir navigated the legal aspects of my separation with diligence and proficiency, ensuring that my rights were protected and that I understood the implications of every decision we made.What truly set Satbir apart was his kindness and compassion. He provided not only legal counsel but also emotional support, offering a listening ear and words of encouragement when I needed them most.Thanks to his guidance, I was able to navigate the challenges of my separation with greater ease and confidence. He helped me find clarity in a time of confusion and provided me with the strength to move forward toward a brighter future.I would not hesitate to recommend Satbir to anyone in need of legal assistance, knowing that they will receive not only top-notch legal representation but also the compassionate support they deserve.
Satbir is highly recommended, personable and understands the importance of meaningful legal direction. He capably reads the room and does all and sundry for the best outcome for his client. He certainly shows compassion. He is a wealth of knowledge and represents Coulter Legal with integrity and respect.
I can't thank my lawyers enough for their exceptional support during my separation process (Special thanks to Skye Wylde, Julia Walker, Tori Jaques and their teams).Their guidance was invaluable, turning what could have been a daunting experience into a surprisingly seamless journey. Their timely advice not only made the decision-making process practical but also ensured that I felt supported every step of the way. I highly recommend their services for anyone navigating the complexities of separation. A heartfelt thanks to the entire team for their professionalism and compassion.

Priya Silwaraju was recommended to us as an outstanding Wills and Probate lawyer. We had what a SC referred to as one of the most complex cases he had come across, requiring a level of expertise and inquiry transcending most cases. Priya not only achieved for us an absolutely excellent outcome, but provided much needed reassurance throughout the process as we were dealing with unfamiliar territory. Her consistent and clear explanation of every step of the process and clear advice kept us continually abreast of everything going on. We also benefitted from her incorporation of advice from senior counsel and barristers specialising in specific areas of law. Her warm and personable manner never faltered and it was this human element that made the entire process so much easier for us. Priya’s exceptional knowledge of the law was also paired with her ability to juggle multiple perspectives and approaches in order to achieve the best outcome. We were able to rest easy in the knowledge that she would go above and beyond for us, which she did numerous times. We are so grateful for not only her expertise and our ability to rely on this but also for her integrity and warmth. Thank you Priya, for navigating us through one of the most stressful times of our lives and for the exceptional result you achieved for us. We are so grateful.
