Hendersons Legal have acted me for over 10 years and provided excellent legal services. On one occasion Hendersons Legal successfully recovered over $50,000 from a company that refused numerous requests to settle entitlements owed to employees.

I received advice from a Perth firm of solicitors which led me to believe that I had little or no right to pursue my claim against a neighbouring property owner. Within twenty four hours of discussing the issues with Hendersons Legal I received different legal advice that proved that I was in a much stronger position than I originally thought. Armed with this information I was successful in court. The financial gain from the superior legal advice was considerable. I can highly recommend Hendersons Legal to anyone requiring strong and decisive advice where civil matters are concerned.
