Good afternoon, I would like to leave an anonymous review for Perrella Legal, most especially to Ms. Ashleigh Antoine. I am very grateful to have spoken to Ms. Antoine at the first instance because we felt we are in good hands. She explained the process in terms that we can understand. She is very professional, nonjudgmental, and very down to earth. Throughout the process of almost 3 years, we achieved the best outcome. I can never thank her enough for her patience for our son, she recognised his needs and dealt with him in a manner that is honest, transparent, and reassuring. She worked hard for this case and we see how dedicated she is in her profession and in helping her clients. She is a fighter in court, calm, and hands down with her expertise as a defense lawyer. The fear of hearing the prosecutor lay out information to the judge that we think was not in our favor, Ms. Antoine counters it with significant non challenging arguments that I would not have thought about and puts us at ease each time. She is AMAZING! What an exceptional ability she has and more respectable because of her HUMILITY.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Michael Perrella and Amelia Mclean for all their help and bearing with me all through the most challenging legal battle of my life in the Court of Law which was completely framed by my then wife along with her entire family specially parents.
Mr Perrella is the most prudent lawyer, experienced, amiable, and methodologically proceeded my case with his team including Ms Mclean with the utmost care with an empathetic approach and I was acquitted of all 4 charges with jurors giving their verdicts within a short period of time "Not Guilty". It was euphoric and the credit went to Michael. Michael has a great patience to listen to his client.
Justice prevailed with Michael’s tireless work of 7-day-trial. Michael brought back justice to his innocent client proving the opponent you can’t gloss over Michael even you managed to do so almost every Authority.
Ms Mclean is one of the coolest soft-spoken lawyers with an attitude to help everybody and she was very supportive all along.
The Perrella Legal team is highly recommended for anyone seeking legal advice and support within an affordable price with a great care.

Michael handled my brother's serious criminal case and is a very professional, honest, and experienced individual. He understands exactly what he is doing and what needs to be done during the trial. He is very intelligent and confident in his abilities as a defence attorney. In comparison to other firms, his legal fees are reasonable. If you work with Perrella Legal, you will be extremely fortunate. Amelia is also very helpful and friendly; she understands the client's pain and never becomes angry. Michael answers emails on weekends and after hours. During the trial, he is an excellent fighter. Don't be concerned if Michael handles your case, in my opinion.

Dear Ashleigh
I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your exceptional effort and assistance throughout the entire two-year court process. Your dedication and support have been invaluable, and I cannot thank you enough.
From the very beginning, you have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that I received the best possible guidance and representation. Your extensive knowledge of the legal system, attention to detail, and ability to explain complex legal matters in a way that I could understand were truly remarkable.
Not only did you provide me with expert advice and representation, but you also showed genuine compassion and empathy during what was undoubtedly a challenging and daunting period in my life. Your unwavering support and reassurance helped alleviate some of the stress and anxiety I was experiencing throughout the process.
Your commitment to my case was evident in the countless hours you spent researching, preparing documents, and representing me in court. I truly felt that you had my best interests at heart and that you were fighting for justice on my behalf.
I am immensely grateful for your guidance and expertise, which ultimately resulted in a successful outcome for my case. Your tireless efforts and professionalism are a testament to your exceptional skills as a legal professional.
Once again, please accept my deepest appreciation for your extraordinary effort and assistance throughout the entire court process. Your unwavering dedication and support have made a significant difference in my life, and I am extremely thankful to have had you by my side.
You are truly an exceptional lawyer, and I will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone in need of legal representation.

Dear Michael and Amelia,
On behalf of the young man we support through our disability agency, I would like to both thank you and congratulate you in the way in which you supported and represented our mutual client. This young man has experienced trauma and discrimination for most of his life but said he always felt heard, supported and reassured by the Perella Legal team. His carers were equally impressed and stressed how you were consistently patient, empathetic and considerate. In addition, you took the time to ensure that he understood the information being provided to him, his rights and what was expected throughout the trial process. Your sensitive and professional approach matched your due diligence and articulation when providing the legal defence- which of course led to a positive outcome. We wish you and your firm all the best and will recommend your services to others without hesitation.
Sincerely
A and H

I had a difficult case, with difficulty on time lines, [but] what I had was the most understanding compassionate team with Ms Antoine and McLean. Their professionalism, duty and after service was second to none, I thoroughly recommend this firm.

I am not a review writer, however I can find no better way than to post a review as I come to the end of a lengthy, challenging matter.
With all these “criminal law“ matters knowing who to turn to often comes when one is desperate for direction, before even receiving good legal advice.
I can not give advice on criminal matters but I can give direction when it happens.
Call Michael Perrella.
I have received a service that is clear, competent, succinct and successful.
It is exceptional in this day and age to have a professional who listens and understands. And understands quickly. Implicit in the rate of a lawyer is not just what they do (which in my case was impressive ) but the efficiency of how they execute those services. This is important where funds are finite. (Aren’t they always!)
You will get very good value with Michael Perrella.
Traits of competency, communication and understanding are key in the matters of criminal law.
I received a service with all these traits from Michael and his team. You will get excellent advice with Michael Perrella.
Michael took over the case late in its process after I was referred to him by a friend. He instantly got to the heart of the complex matter and skilfully did what needed to be done without fuss and managed with care.
From then on my stress levels reduced significantly and I began to feel confidence in the process and rightful outcome.
Perrella Legal have assisted enormously to my family’s health and well being. That can not be measured.
All who read this please know with Michael Perrella and his team you are in good hands.
