“ Over the past 3 years I have been in need of legal services for the purchase of businesses. My Agent gave me the number of Despina Priala and I must say it was one of the most beneficial phone calls I ever made.

Despina's attention to detail and getting everything right the first time is a commendable trait in business today and that is exactly the way she runs her practice. Many the time she had to advise the "other side" of things that were required to be done to enable efficient settlement, and without that eye for detail and commitment, the end result would not have been forthcoming so quickly.

If anyone is ever in need of a no-nonsense, efficient, reliable and dedicated legal person then you should go no further than making the call to Priala Legal Services. To top it off, she returns phone calls and doesn't leave you "hanging" when you need to have questions answered quickly. ”

“ Late last year, I had need to respond to an action brought by an over-zealous Body Corporate in the building that I reside in, this involved preparing a response to the Body Corporate Commission office.

I was advised by a very old personal friend that I should talk with Despina Priala of Priala Legal at Ashmore, Gold Coast Queensland.

I found that Despina Priala was very easy to explain my problems to and I found that the response that she prepared was very precise and thorough; I commend her on her follow up, and was pleased that she was successful in this matter for me.

I would have no problem recommending her law firm to any person in need of good legal counsel at reasonable cost. ”
