What Our Clients Say


  • "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

  • 'Dear Valentina Thank you so much for your excellent and very professional service in the preparation of our Wills. We appreciate your guidance and pleasant manner during this time and wish you all the very best.'

    - Phyllis and Ron, Sylvania

  • “You made an unpleasant situation that bit more bearable and gave us hope. It was a lengthy negotiation, and we are very grateful to you for your wonderful advice and diplomacy, especially through the emotion and frustration”

    – Michelle W.

  • '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

  • "Nikita was extremely caring and professional. She responded to all of my emails/calls in a very timely manner and always provided valuable feedback and knowledge throughout a very difficult time."

  • "Some years ago based on recommendation from a friend, I hired Solari and Stock Lawyers to assist me with my divorce. Riccarda Stock was just the person I needed to help me through a very difficult time, she was always available for advice, extremely responsive and timely with feedback to the other party. Riccarda also provided great advice during finalisation of my will and other matters. Solari and Stock really go out of their way to look after their clients needs."

    - Catherine

  • "Like to thank Maneka for her professionalism and quick and easy responses in regards to a will dispute."

    - Gregory P

  • '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

  • "Rebecca has a pleasant friendly manner. From the outset, Rebecca clearly explained the service options available and associated costs for preparing our wills, we found Rebecca to be efficient, thorough and reliable. We therefore have no hesitation in continuing to use the legal services of Rebecca at Solari Stock in the future."

    J & D, Oyster Bay

  • "Michael Solari and his team are the best lawyers I have worked with. They are pleasant, knowledgeable and very thorough. They have helped me with various matters for over 10 years. I have also recently had conveyancing service from Valentina at Solari and Stock, she is excellent at what she does and an amazing person. My sincerest thanks to your great team."

    - Anonymous

  • "Just a great team! Both professional and compassionate-you can't beat that. My experience over many years has made it easy to recommend Solari and Stock Miranda."

    - BT

  • "Some 3 years ago Nikita Ward handled my divorce from my now Ex wife. There was a slight hiccup due to my Ex living overseas- but everything worked out rather good at no extra cost. I was rather happy with Nikitas services and advice given and went back to Solari & Stock recently to draw up my Last Will, Appointment of Enduring Guardian, Enduring Power of Attorney, Health Advanced Care Directive. ( advice) Rebecca Exley and Judy Wong were very patient explaining all the legal differences and consequences for each instruction given in those 4 documents. Cost has been as quoted and well worth my piece of mind knowing that all is in good order. All original documents are kept at Solari & Stock as a free of charge service."
