RJ June 18, 2019
Have been a client of Taylor and Scott for over 20 years. When Richard Scott retired, he handed us over to Evelyn Gardis. She has steered us through complicated house sale issues, and given us the best advice in a variety of legal matters. My husband and I feel we have a friend in Evelyn, who gives us support and legal knowledge.

I have very good experience with Taylor & Scott. I was most impressed with the professional experience and expertise of David Hartstein and Kimberley Becker in their handling of my workers compensation case.
Kimberley Becker was very skilful in preparing my case for submission to WIRO for funding approval. I was most grateful for her ability to get the funding for me. David Hartstein took over the case from Kimberley when she went on maternity leave. David has been very thorough and demonstrated a high level of experience in handling my case. He showed a lot of empathy and support during the entire process. It helped me greatly as that was what I needed.
Margaret from Epping April 2, 2019
All services were very good. Marina and Kelly were very helpful and nice.
John Dent March 20, 2019

I found the process difficult, preceding the settlement there was a traffic issue that was needed to be addressed and that was successfully attended to by Ivan Simic and his team, for which I was very grateful.
Limo January 31, 2019
I dealt with David Hartstein and I was very happy with him. I do not know what I would have done without his assistance.
SC from Glendemning January 17, 2019
I am 75 years of age, am deaf and have an eye problem but still able to train! I just wanted to say that Kellie was my Angel. All throughout my case she made it so easy for me, and I felt very, very comfortable with her. She just had a way of dealing with people. I don't know what age or background she comes from but she was just a blessing. I want to be honest and fair and I would say that I would strongly recommend Taylor & Scott to anyone, I was very happy with the result of my claim.
John Lewis January 9, 2019
Taylor & Scott were courteous, customer focused, & timely.
Daren from Warrawee December 12, 2018
Our experience with Ray and Marina from Taylor and Scott has really been unbelievable. I felt really looked after by them and at no point did we ever feel that we were a burden despite the complexity of the TPD policy/claim and my constant calling Ray and Marina always made sure that we were kept in the loop and fully informed. They fought for what was right and delivered the best result with causing the most minimum amount of stress to us in a very stressful time of our lives. We could not be happier and to have the care and support that they provided to us was second to none.
Ryan and Evellina November 7, 2018
Excellent
Michael October 24, 2018
My contact initially was with Ivan who completely understood how traumatic the bullying I had suffered from my unscrupulous employer. He assigned my case to Jessica who handled it with kindness, compassion and complete professionalism Tim guided us through the difficult ordeal at FWC. I can’t thank them enough for easing the stress. Absolutely wonderful people, kind and compassionate. Would recommend Ivan, Jessica and Tim most definitely - Jessica is extremely thorough and showed kindness, encouragement and compassion throughout.
Teresa Lockyer October 10, 2018
I worked for Edgels over 20 years ago and I knew that working in the factory caused the problem - to think that they took up my case 20 years old just goes to show how good they are, it's never too late to get justice, if you want the best go to Taylor and Scott - I now have a hearing aid top of the line and my life is so much better. I don't have to say what did you say! I can watch tv and can hear my grandchildren fighting, I hope my daughter has a child one day I will not have to worry about not hearing the baby cry so thank you Taylor and Scott.

From the moment we met with Simon Meigan from Taylor Scott we knew we were in goods hands and we need all the help and guidance we could get, Simon and his team were fantastic, they keep us informed all the way through this most difficult period in our lives and comforted us during very difficult times. Our faith in Simon was proven ten fold. At mediation where we were all in attendance in the room with our Team from Taylor Scott, Simon and Michael were outstanding in the negotiation of our Settlement which we were very happy with. I would not hesitate to recommend Taylor Scott, with Simon and his team, outstanding and did everything they said they would and more.

Kimberley Becker & Ray Maclenahan were extremely helpful over the past 4 yrs. I was always kept well informed regarding my workers compensation claim. As far as the TPD claim from my Super Fund, I didn't know I was entitled to this claim until being informed of this by Ray. My messages were always given to anyone that needed to hear them promptly & a return call, message or letter was always sent to me answering my call & explaining my questions. I was always kept informed with an up-to-date regular progress of my claims.
Karen George September 14, 2017

He came to my mother's house to work with my father in relation to his dust diseases matter while he was still alive. He was fantastic and he had our best interests at the foremost. He always explained what was happening, and all our options and what best to do. We would highly recommend him to anyone.

My experience with Taylor & Scott has been with Gervase Liddy and Evelyn Gardis on various legal matters. Their advice has been timely and they addressed all legal issues that were required to be carried out in various property and commercial transactions. I found them to be excellent as well as their support staff.
M.S. from Port Macquarie May 25, 2017
I spoke with Adam Keenan when I first contacted Taylor Scott, with a request to have a new will made. I wasn't able to have a face to face meeting with a solicitor as I could not get time off work. Adam assured me that it was possible to complete the procedure via email and only have a meeting to sign the will. I was also advised that it was wise to also have a POA and an Enduring Guardianship as well as a will. Once I had outlined my requirements and I had a phone conference with Evelyn Gardis where she clarified everything and also made sure I understood all the aspects of my will etc. The whole process was convenient and easy. I was happy with the fees as I thought they were very reasonable. All my queries have been dealt with promptly and efficiently. I was more than happy with my experience with Taylor & Scott and would be more than happy to continue to use the legal services of this law practice in the future.
Jennifer C from Sydney May 12, 2017
I am very happy and satisfied with the outcome and the service provided by Taylor & Scott - firstly with Michelle Allard, then Belinda and Simon Meigan. They all went out of their way to help me. I was so happy that I referred my mother for an Estate matter to them and said she should not use anyone else. Again I want to personally thank Simon for all his help.

I suffered a workplace injury and from day one Taylor and Scott were there to assist, help and support me. I would never ever have been able to get to where I am today without the assistance of Kimberely Becker, Ray McClenahan and Simon Meigan. I cannot thank them enough together with their amazing secretaries who put up with my emails and phone calls. I was always kept informed of anything that was happening in my case. I was not a number that I would have been treated as by the large firms. Taylor and Scott care about you as a person and want the best for both you, your future and family.

At first my husband and I were hesitant to get advice for my application of partner visa and we just decided to apply it online but my mother in law told us to get migration agent to make sure of the result so she did some searches online and found Taylor and Scott lawyers.
We met Andrew, a registered migration agent for the initial consultation. He was very accommodating and understanding. Throughout the whole process, he had kept us informed and followed up for us with the Department of Immigration proactively.
We received his first class advice on what to do and what to include in our application in a very straight forward manner. Now I got my temporary visa and looking forward to geting my permanent visa at the end of this year.
We highly recommend Mr. Andrew Woo for the quality of his services to anyone intending to apply for a visa in Australia. We thank you for guiding us throughout this application. God bless!

Aileen from Penrith August 17, 2016
I used legal services of Andrew Woo for my employer-sponsored permanent residency visa application.
I found his service to be of exceptionally high quality. My case was not straight-forward and was particularly challenging due to my complex health issues. However I found Andrew’s knowledge, expertise and confidence on navigating the whole process top notch.
He was always very professional and clear in his communications to both myself and to the Department. Most importantly, he was always easily contactable and was immediate in his responses to all my questions!
Overall, I’m an extremely satisfied client and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services to anyone!

AA and SA from Sydney August 17, 2016
Huge thanks to Andrew Woo who helped us with our health waiver.
I live in QLD with my Australian partner. My partner visa application was refused due to medical condition - we found out on the medical tests that I have HIV. We applied for the health waiver and got in contact with one of the well-known migration agents. Unfortunately we failed the waiver, it was because our previous agent did not take it seriously enough and lots of evidence was missing to support our case.
We tried to look for another immigration lawyer but many times they would not even reply to our emails or turned us down in other ways. I felt helpless and the nature of my condition made me feel like I'm being discriminated.
We decided to take the matter to our own hands and went through the tribunal hearing without any legal help. After the hearing the tribunal give us a few weeks to hand in more information which made us uneasy. At that point we contacted Andrew Woo. Finally, we found someone who gave me the right vibe, friendly and professional and straight forward with the cost.
We asked Andrew to finalize our submission which he did in such a professional way that we had little doubt left that this time we will go through. Mitigating the costs mainly depends on income and financial background, without knowledgeable legal help it would be hard if not impossible to win.
I recommend Andrew to anyone in the same situation as me. Our case was a harder one but thanks to Andrew Woo the tribunal remitted the case.

T from Queensland August 17, 2016
I would recommend Taylor & Scott Lawyers and more specifically Mr Andrew Woo, to any person seeking for the right immigration advice. His guidance, professionalism and availability, were very much appreciated during the visa process. Immigration can be very complex and his honesty on each situation, as critical it could be, is very much appreciated. I can't thank you Andrew enough for all his assistance in my successful visa application.
Emile and TomEmile and Tom August 17, 2016
Dear Andrew,
I wish to thank you for all your work involved in the processing of my application for permanent residency. When we first met to discuss my case after previously having dealt with an unscrupulous migration agent, you advised that it would be a very challenging one considering the fact that I had been unlawful for almost 20 years and there was no documentary evidence to support my relationship with my partner of 10 years.
On top of that, I was recently diagnosed with a chronic pulmonary disease and was relying upon oxygen mask to help with breathing. Little did we suspect how many deviations it would take to get the permanent residency if at all possible, but despite the refusals and knockbacks you persevered through almost 3 years of red tape with the opposition.
You were able to convince the tribunal to reverse the refusal decision despite the lack of documentary evidence and subsequently submitted a convincing submission for the waiver of health requirement. Seemingly refusing to budge, they offered no quarter and our hopes sank.
You, however, weren’t content to rest on your laurels and through it all you unravelled the complexities of my case one by one, you came through when I thought all was lost. I cannot thank you enough for all this work you and your partners put into my case. When I struggled at times financially and personally, you went above and beyond to help us out and sooth our misgivings.
The final outcome of our case was a ‘hopeful’ new life for me and my partner of 15 years, Ann and a resounding “Top Result” for you. I cannot thank you enough.
Kind regards,
George from Five DockGeorge from Five Dock August 17, 2016
My partner and I moved to Australia in 2008. I had obtained a job as a medical specialist and was granted a (457) business visa.
After we decided to stay longer than a “few years” I obtained my Australian fellowship to the medical college. This made us eligible to obtain a permanent residency.
As my partner is HIV+ we were aware that we would not satisfy the required health requirement and that we needed a “health waiver”. Obtaining a permanent residency would not be a straightforward process. Via Positive People we obtained a list with Lawyers who specialise in immigration law i.e. health waivers.
We checked several websites, but basically randomly picked one. “Taylor and Scott” it was. During a free consultation with their immigration agent Andrew Woo the whole procedure was discussed with us: the process itself, possible obstacles, the health waiver, our chance of obtaining permanent residency, duration and costs. As Andrew impressed us to be very knowledgeable and as he had the backing of a law firm (in case things didn’t work out the way we expect it would be), we decided to proceed with Andrew as our immigration agent.
During the whole process Andrew’s knowledge, experience and his contacts with the department of immigration have been of incredible value. At every hurdle we had to take he provided us advice and clear instruction. The health waiver he wrote on our behalf was very professional and of a quality we would not have been able to do ourselves.
While at times we had enough of all the bureaucracy, Andrew kept on going and his responses remained prompt up to the last moment. (Does he ever have a day off?).
Last week we obtained our permanent residency. It had worked out completely as Andrew had predicted. He had been able to change the whole process into a straightforward process after all. I am convinced that without his work and support the whole procedure would not have been so smooth and would have taken much longer.
It has been a pleasure to work with Andrew and we are very grateful for all the work he has done for us. We can and we do highly recommend his service.
Jack and Terry August 17, 2016
Throughout this entire process, I have been treated with the utmost respect and all involved have worked tirelessly and very professionally. I will highly recommend Taylor and Scott Lawyers to any person in the future.

In 2011, we decided to apply for permanent residency. We knew that legal assistance regarding a health matter was required for our cause, so we came into contact with Taylor and Scott Lawyers where we eventually had the privilege to engage with Andrew Woo. He treated our case with incredible professionalism and compassion. After a considerable period of patience and perseverance, we finally achieved our main objective and we are so pleased to say that this would not have happened without Andrew's dedication, support and expertise.
MR and MN from Sydney November 25, 2015
In February 2014, I approached Andrew Woo of Taylor and Scott Lawyers regarding a request for further information requested from the Department of Immigration and Border Protection in relation to my wife's application for a Spousal Visa for permanency in Australia. It was about the health criteria. The information required was complicated and confusing. With the assistance and guidance from Andrew, a document was prepared by myself and my wife and forwarded to Andrew for perusal and editing. A final document was prepared and agreed to by my wife and myself and forwarded by Andrew to the Case Officer at the Australian High Commission in Nairobi, Kenya. Approximately six months later a favorable response was received from the Australian High Commission. If it wasn't for Andrew's professionalism and dedicated approach I am sure the outcome would have been different. Thank you Andrew.
JP and JO November 25, 2015
When I became aware of my health condition about 2 years ago, I was advised to seek professional advice. To my great relief, Andrew Woo at Taylor and Scott answered my call and made the first appointment with him in his office. I felt sorry to bring him probably one of the most complicated immigration cases because of my health problem and marriage issues. He, however, was through and knowledgeable. Most importantly, he knew what he was doing and had a clear strategic plan for me on how to tackle the issues and managed to find an approach to solve all problems. Thanks to his professionalism, here I am enjoying my work and life in Sydney.
JD from Sydney November 25, 2015
We set up our subsidiary company in Australia in order to expand our market presence in the aviation sector and support our parent company in Scotland. We needed to locate one of our experienced head office staff familiar with our strategy and products into Sydney. We tried to do it on our own initially but realised that we needed expert advice on the framework of 457 visa and employer sponsored visas. I was gratefully introduced to Andrew Woo at Taylor and Scott. He was really speedy with his responses and understood and addressed our concerns in most efficient way. Most importantly, he delivered the outcome we needed in a timely manner. We would certainly recommend him to anyone.

Andrew Woo readily took on the matter and took us through the whole process to lodge a successful health waiver application. We both are very happy with all the support and candid advice provided by Taylor and Scott Lawyers. We will definitely recommend their services to our friends.

I would just like to say I'm deeply thankful for your help and getting me through this tough time. I understand that it may have been a bit difficult because my English isn't that great and am grateful for continuing to work with me despite it.
A.D. from Sydney November 25, 2015
I'd been referred to Taylor and Scott by another solicitor. That was my first gift. From the moment I met with the Taylor & Scott Family Law Team I knew I was to receive the most professional and caring service.
Taylor & Scott Lawyers saw the situation for what it was and fought hard for my little one to come home. Taylor & Scott Lawyers at all times took my highly emotional calls and emails and supported me through the difficult times. I will always be grateful for their caring attitudes.

We owe the highest level of praise to Mark Youssef and the Family Law Team. Mark worked tirelessly to advise and support us, always keeping the needs of our child and our unique family circumstances as the focus.

I must commend Fiona, if it weren’t for her proactive and consistent effort we would not have been able to get through the sale/purchase of our land. Fiona exceeded our expectations and went far and beyond her duty.

I recently engaged Taylor and Scott to handle conveyancing for the sale of an investment property. The entire process was handled with the utmost professionalism.

The professionalism and efficiency displayed by Fiona Duncan-White and Evelyn Gardis in ensuring settlement happened quickly and without delay was unparalleled.
Melanie from Emu Heights November 25, 2015
I've been working with Evelyn for over 10 years and have the utmost respect for her as a solicitor. I had no hesitation in approaching Evelyn and her team to assist with conveyancing work on the purchase of our new home. Evelyn and Fiona provided comprehensive and efficient advice throughout the entire settlement period. We look forward to using Taylor and Scott Lawyers for our next purchase. Many Thanks!
T & J Hobart November 25, 2015
Evelyn Gardis from Taylor & Scott Lawyers was an absolute godsend, it was our first investment property and we bought our first home a number of years earlier so we were a little unsure of the process and next steps. Evelyn lead us through the process, answered all our questions promptly and with respect - she was a pleasure to deal with.
D&G from Berala November 25, 2015
We recently sold our waterfront apartment, with a two week settlement requested by the purchaser. To represent us, we approached the law firm Taylor & Scott who appointed their Property specialist, Evelyn Gardis and her team.
The process was not without its difficulties, exacerbated by the short settlement period. However, Evelyn handled each issue with a professionalism and understanding that instilled confidence in us, in a matter with which we had little experience. We are forever grateful with the outcome and will return to the law firm and its professionals, for any future real estate requirements.

I initially came to Australia from India on a student visa in 2008. I ran into problems with the police and had some issues with my school at the time in 2010. My student visa was ultimately cancelled in 2010, the same year when I first met my current partner. My partner and I decided to build a family of our own and went on to get happily married. Our biggest worry was my visa status as I was staying unlawfully in Australia, which caused me to look for an experienced migration expert. I contacted Taylor and Scott lawyers and came under the care of Andrew Woo who was on the ball. He knew what he was doing and had all strategic plans for me and my whole family from sorting out the problems associated with my unlawful status at the time of the application to previous criminal records. He also helped me obtain permission to work very promptly so I was able to keep supporting my whole family. Given my circumstances, I had been really nervous and anxious throughout the process. Andrew Woo had been there to make me feel more positive and focus on other things than the visa application. Thanks to his guidance, I was finally granted a temporary partner visa and felt I became finally liberated from my troubled past. I would not have come this far without Andrew’s guidance throughout the whole process. I would certainly recommend his service to anyone seeking immigration assistance.
Manjit from Sydney November 10, 2015
Andrew has processed my visa application for the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) on my behalf. Initially aimed for the Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189), I was somewhat frustrated when the occupation ceiling for Accountants had been reached for FY15. Nevertheless, Andrew identified and suggested an alternative way to me.
Upon my decision to go ahead with the 190 visa, Andrew promptly lodged my application with the Department of Immigration and Border Protection. He not only actively listened to my needs, but also responded to my queries in a timely fashion. He is knowledgeable, professional and is capable of resolving problems when unexpected problems arise.
With confidence, I would recommend Andrew's service to anyone who is willing to live, study or pursue a professional career in Australia.

I would like to thank you for your exceptional service.
The speed and professionalism provided by you for my mother in law's visa have been exceptional.
You have kept me informed throughout the whole process. I will gladly recommend you to anyone.
Thank you
Charles Moon from Sydney November 10, 2015
Any immigration matter has at least some degree of uncertainty and could be a stressful process. That is why I contacted Andrew Woo of Taylor and Scott to help my application for 189 residency visa Thanks to his great efficiency and true professionalism I was granted with the visa with minimal stress throughout the process. He was very responsive to my inquiries and helpful in every aspect of the process. I would recommend his service to any person seeking help in their immigration matter.
David Lee, accounting graduate from UNSW November 10, 2015
Thank you Taylor & Scott.
From the outset of our enquiries regarding power of attorney and guardianship the lawyers at Taylor and Scott provided clear,succinct and accurate information. They were prompt with acting on our instructions. Kimberly Becker then completed the legal process” face to face” in a clear and professional manner. Thank you Taylor and Scott.Brad & Chris November 10, 2015
Taylor and Scott have been helping me in legal matters for 25 years. I would not hesitate in recommending them. They have always been courteous, helpful and efficient.
D.S. from Lawson November 10, 2015
I had a very good experience with Taylor and Scott .
I am very happy with the great support and perfect job they did in my case. I would like to describe my positive feedback to everyone especially with my lawyer Kimberly who did a great job to help me win my case .I was bullied, discriminated against and sexually harassed by some crew members at my work. I just wanted to be given my rights and to feel better. I wish what happened to me never happens to any other woman at any time.
I would like to say a special thanks to Kimberly and her team.
V.O. Fairfield November 10, 2015
Taylor & Scott should be very proud to have such professional, caring and dedicated people working for them. The patience you showed at times, the sincerity you both displayed in advising me, empathizing and above all else, giving me hope once again. Thank you for being such caring people.
