Hear from the Queensland families we’ve helped

Anthony Tartaglia
They provide a very good service. They are professional, punctual and on-point. Their knowledge of law is quite good. I do recommend their services.
Catherine Markson
After going through a separation, I spent a lot of time researching and am so grateful I found Malcolm at Landers Solicitors. From the very beginning, Malcolm was calm, supportive and genuinely on my side. He is intuitive, respectful, knowledgeable and, above all, honest.
Landers Solicitors are extremely reasonably priced and affordable. In contrast, my husband chose a large, high-profile city firm and ended up paying many times more, with no better outcome. Landers operate without the overheads of a fancy office, which keeps costs down.
Malcolm was always available to me, often outside normal business hours, and I consistently received quick responses. I never felt rushed or like I was being billed for every minute. It was clear they were focused on achieving the right outcome for me, not on squeezing every last dollar out of the process.
Thanks to Malcolm and Andrew’s guidance and support, I achieved the outcome I was hoping for and have been able to move forward feeling secure and at peace. I honestly don’t think I’d be this happy today without their help. Malcolm and Andrew are brilliant at what they do, and I couldn’t recommend Landers Solicitors highly enough.
Mevyn Appaya
Heartiest thanks to Andrew, Jill and his entire team for handling my parenting matter. I have never posted any review before. But this one cannot go unrecognized. I had one of the toughest battle for child custody. Andrew went beyond conventional lawyer firms and assisted me even after hours and weekends without overcharging. He invested both professionally and emotionally in my case as he understand importance of both parents in upbringing of a child. Andrew is very experienced, knows the legal system and will always give you advice on what work best for your matter. I highly recommend Andrew for your family matters. 🙏🙏
Monika Douglas
Malcolm and Andrew were great to work with and very understanding throughout the whole process. They made a difficult situation feel lighter and I am grateful for that

Mal Pieterse recently assisted me in a parenting matter. Family court is not a pleasant experience for anyone involved and I found Mal’s support and advice to be invaluable during this time. I found Mal to be professional, calm and child-focussed.
Michelle Veitch
Mal from the team at Lander Solicitors was excellent to work with. His advice was comprehensive, and his responses were so prompt. If you want to work with someone incredibly responsive and empathetic, look no further than Lander Solicitors.

Thanks Mal!

rebecca sinclair
Andrew and Malcolm are experts at their jobs and made the experience as seamless and efficient as possible. I would highly recommend them for any divorce or separation advice.
Libby Viriki
Lander Solicitors have handled some family law stuff for me recently. Prior to my initial consult with Andrew & Mal I was very anxious about my situation but quickly felt comfortable and understood. Both Andrew & Mal are very professional but most importantly kind, genuine & patient during what is a difficult situation. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone who is chasing ‘down to earth’ but professional legal representation.
John Allan
Andrew Lander is a lawyer that was genuinely interested in helping me resolve my family law matter against my ex-wife at a time when I had to change lawyers and I was struggling emotionally. His no nonsense unpretentious approach, whilst still providing expert advice, helped me achieve a fair and equitable outcome in a cost-effective manner. I recommend him.
Jeff Krause
I have just returned from my final property settlement two day trial. It took several years with my previous law firm to get nowhere. Settled on the first day without a trial. Absolutely a great team to work with. Eternally grateful to Andrew, Malcom and the Barrister that Lander Solicitors arranged for me. Excellent outcome. Brilliant law firm to deal with.

I'm so grateful to have had Andrew and Malcolm on my team and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a divorce lawyer.

Andrew and Mal have been representing me in a complex family law case for over a year now. Throughout this time they have shown empathy and care, given me straightforward advice and shown a deep understanding of the law. I highly recommend them as professionals who will treat you like a human.
