What our clients say

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."

"Pragma have been wonderful advisors to the Rivet Group on a range of matters across disputes, M&A, compliance and insolvency. Our experience with Pragma is that they are readily available, have a great team in place who is easy to work with, and they always get the law right. On more than one occasion, we have requested urgent advice on short notice and Pragma has always been willing to deliver. A firm with a bright future, we intend to engage Pragma Lawyers in years to come."
