What Our Clients Say


  • 'I was first introduced to Solari and Stock in September 2020, during which time my family were negotiating the very emotional predicament of having to relocate our frail elderly parents from their South Coast property back to an aged care facility in Sydney during which time my father was diagnosed with a terminal health condition, he passed away 12 weeks later at 92 YOA. Through this very difficult time and right from the get go, the staff at Solari and Stock were very understanding of my family's situation and through their passion and commitment to their clients supported by their wealth of experience in all areas of relevant Law, were able to coach and guide me through the legal complexities associated with my parents house sale/settlement, contracts for aged care and the financial settlement upon my father's passing. Coming from an initial position of caution not having dealt with Lawyers before, I was completely blown away by their availability, response service and their professionalism, nothing was too much trouble. As a result of this very positive experience, Solari and Stock now have me as a client for life and I have been recommending them to others.'

    - Mark S

  • “Solari and Stock have been great to work with. I am very happy with their services and professionalism and Nikita has been absolutely wonderful to deal with. She worked with me to come out with the best possible outcome, so a very happy client here!”

    - Sylvia

  • "I just wanted to let you both know that we thoroughly enjoyed working with Valentina to secure our daughter’s first property. She was always available to us, professional, engaging, communicated every step, and was really lovely to our daughter when she came in with us. What could have been a quite daunting experience for her was anything but. Valentina also made herself available to J, communicated clearly what she needed from him and was available when he came in to see her. All in all another wonderful experience that our family has had with Solari and Stock. Thank you."

    - M & E George

  • "Nikita is unrelenting in her endeavour to get the best possible outcome and justice for her clients in utilising her comprehensive knowledge and experience in Family Law."

    - Paul Nieuwenhuis

  • "Nikita Ward was my guardian angel who was able to both comfort and defend me from unjustice when the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. I will forever be grateful for her assistance and I recommend Nikita without reservation. She is a lawyer who fights for her clients and I trust her 100%."

    - Z.B. Oatley

  • "Dear Nikita What you did for my daughters and I no words can truly describe. You were not just my legal representation but an emotional support over the last three years! You’ll never know how forever thankful I am. When I needed you, you were always there walking me through this process of fighting for sole parent responsibility. My story was defintely something right from a Netflix bestseller!! Unbelievable but believable, you took my hand and told me we could do this! You may not know what a special kind of human you are, that combined with being a lawyer is unstoppable! Whoever has you in their corner are truly blessed as was I."

    - Lou

  • 'If you’re seeking a dedicated, compassionate, and truly exceptional property lawyer, look no further than Valentina Abouzeid. Over the past couple of years, we’ve navigated various property challenges, especially in assisting my father, who had dementia, with his extrication from a difficult retirement village in Padstow Heights. Valentina was an invaluable asset during this time. We can’t praise her enough for her promptness, expertise, and unwavering commitment to getting the job done. She took the time to educate us about the process, patiently explaining our legal position and what to expect at every step. Her quiet sense of humor also provided much-needed relief during stressful moments, allowing us to share a laugh when I was feeling "postal". Valentina is truly fabulous, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing straightforward conveyancing issues or more complex property matters as our sales and purchases have been, over the last couple of years.'

    - Meredith Collins and Geoff King

  • "Nicole was the second person who worked on my divorce, but it felt like she was the first. Nicole took the time to read up, understand and most importantly empathise with my situation. Nicole's legal knowledge, backed up by an office of like minded and exceptional people really made me feel at ease that things were being handled the way they were supposed to be. Nicole was especially sympathetic about the children involved which guided the direction of proceedings and ultimately an out of court settlement which saved money and protected the children from unnecessary conflict. If you are in the unfortunate position of going through a divorce, at least you'll know that Nicole will have your back, and help you through the legal side of it."

    - Jake, Miranda

  • "Dear Michael Thank you! In life we are told to expect the unexpected. 2020 certainly threw many unexpected obstacles my way and I cannot express how appreciative I was when Karina advised me that you were prepared to reduce my account. Your offer has been without a doubt most positive and unexpected. I thank you again and look forward to brighter days."

    Justine-Owner of Ramsgate Travel Service

  • "I can't thank Nicole enough for her continued support and professionalism throughout my Family Law matter. Prior to meeting Nicole, I had been struggling with other firms and lawyers that didn’t seem to offer the same level of professional and personal service as Nicole. Since then, she's made a difficult and at times confusing process more bearable and I have confidence that she has my best interests in mind, even when I have a strong opinion, I can trust Nicole to give me her honest advice. I recommended Solari and Stock to other members of my family and they received the same level of professional service from other lawyers in the firm. We can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you!

    - Matt

  • "I first met Nikita when I changed from my city based firm to S&S to handle my difficult divorce. In the 19 or so months working with Nikita (and Co), I can truly say that the whole horrendous proceedings were handled kindly, sensitively and with great attention to detail, so we got the best results possible, with the least possible emotional stress. I was so happy with S&S I chose to use them for my Conveyancing when I bought my house earlier this year, and was equally happy. I’ll definitely be back to sort out my will, power of attorney etc as soon as I can, I can highly recommend them as a professional, multifaceted firm, with a great personal touch. Thank you! "

    -K.N. Miranda

  • "I just wanted to take this time to thank Nikita and Solari and Stock Staff for helping me throughout the most emotional and frustrating time of my life, which lasted just under 4 years. From every phone call to email she was always there to help guide me through. I knew I was in safe hands when I was speaking with her with knowing my rights. I will be forever greatful, and all your help will never be forgotten."
