I want to again express my thanks to Deborah for the sage advice provided with regards to our client contract. Both us and the client were pleased with the outcome as with Deborah’s help we were able to find a middle ground that satisfied everyone’s concerns. The client was impressed with our response. Being our largest client, it was important that we arrived at a reasonable agreement with them – I am grateful for the assistance Deborah provided.
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."
Aaron is an extremely hard working and dedicated professional. His commitment to client service is second to none, and he's a good bloke too. It's probably a bit cliché to say Pragma are pragmatic but really that’s a great way to describe it. The reason I do recommend Pragma is because I know when I send a client or an associate to Pragma that they're going to be happy with the outcome that they receive.
Partnering with Pragma Lawyers for both representation and advice was a pleasure. Aaron and his team not only exhibited professionalism but also demonstrated a keen commercial awareness that set them apart from most other firms. What truly impressed me was their ability to navigate complexities swiftly, consistently achieving fast resolutions without compromising quality. With Aaron, the Founding Director, personally handling all our matters, we experienced firsthand the dedication and expertise driving their success. I highly recommend you look no further than Pragma.
