I recently had a complex legal matter that involved some unpacking and finessing. I engaged the services of Pragma Lawyers and the outcome was very favourable for us. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pragma to my clients and I will contine to use their legal services for any future needs.
"Pragma recently facilitated appropriate workplace behaviour training for 200 employees at BDO Perth. Libbi and Max presented the content in an informative and interactive manner, and were able to apply a commercial lens to the training. The case study examples used in the training were highly relevant to our industry and helped engage our people in what can be a complex and ambiguous area of legislation. I have had positive feedback from Partners and employees following the session and I would have no hesitation in recommending Pragma for future training opportunities."
"We used Pragma to draw up new staff contracts following the new WHS Act and found their service to be seamless. Quick response times and price transparently provided up front. They happily answered our follow up queries and understood our industry specific needs amazingly quickly. Will happily use again as our go-to legal support."
I take my hat off to you both, what an outstanding job...for you guys to get a commitment...was just short of a miracle. Take a bow and a hearty pat on the back from me. We hope we don’t need your services too often but I would certainly not deal with any other legal firm but yours.
Right from the first phone call to Pragma Lawyers reception our experience was positive. I was able to talk to Lawyer Lauren Evans right then and she helped us quickly and efficiently. We wholeheartedly recommend her services.
