Shamili and Shanil were some of the best advisors I've worked with. Their advice and analysis of the skilled migration route into Australia were excellent and extremely thorough. They went above and beyond to help me with advice that was not only curated for my specific purpose but also very personable.

Tamsin and her team have been nothing but exceptional when it came to obtaining my 485 graduate visa. The entire process was handled quite professionally and in a timely manner. After only a day of lodging the application, my visa was granted hassle free.

Tamsin and Shanil recently undertook the conveyancing for our home. They were outstanding as usual and went to the greatest lengths to ensure we were kept informed and that settlement occurred on time. I highly recommend their services!

When I contact them for the first time, they already made me feel like I've been their customer for a long time. Their pricing was fair and with no hidden agenda or costs. If you need Legal Representation for anything in you business or life then I highly recommend APL as your legal team.
