Testimonials
I dealt with Sharman Law after separating from my husband. Phillip Elliot is professional and communication was second to none. I cannot recommend him enough. Absolutely amazing service.
Phillip Elliot is perhaps the most knowledgeable and experienced solicitor in these matters in this region. His knowledge and application of the principles of family law is without par.
I had complete confidence in Philip’s knowledge and expertise. Despite the complexity and emotional nature of my family matter, he remained calm, supportive, and approachable throughout. He took the time to answer all of my questions and demonstrated a thorough understanding of my case, remembering even the finer details.
