Testimonials
SATISFIED CLIENTS
Thank you very much for helping us through the difficult period during the first half of this year. Michael’s proposal for a settlement with the ATO was fair, practical, and highly effective.
We are very pleased with the outcome — it allows us to refocus on our business and continue contributing more tax to the ATO.
A true win-win-win for all parties.
Thank you for arranging settlement with ATO
Tania and her team have been great with their advice and handling of my legal matters with the ATO and TPB.
Thank you Tania, Bernie, Alice, Coco and the others over the journey.
The legal advice has been A++, as was expected.
What was not expected was the caring and empathetic way the services was provided through the entire process. Legal matters are very stressful, and I felt that the Waterhouse team had my back along the way.
I really appreciate that Tania still checks in on me from time to time, even after the matter has been settled.
The Waterhouse team were supportive when needed, but also there was a good dose of reality when that was needed as well.
I certainly hope I will never need their services again, but I can sleep easier with the feeling I know where to go if I ever have another legal matter involving the ATO or TPB.
God bless to the Waterhouse team – my family’s future is safer and more secure by having you on my side.
Thank you for A++ help
Some sanity returns to my life
For many years I have lived overseas and paid tax in my country of family residence and employment. You can imagine my surprise when I received a letter from ATO suggesting I might owe a return for the past 2 years including a list of overseas income. Alarm bells rang as I did indeed owe some returns, but fixing the issue opened a whole Pandora’s Box of issues that I knew could only be solved by a professional expert in Taxation Law.
I trolled the Internet for hours looking for a Tax Lawyer in my home city, most of whom were from very big firms. When I came upon Waterhouse Lawyers I immediately felt that I had found the right people even though we were miles apart. I engaged Tania and her team without a moment’s hesitation and was on board as a client minutes after discussion with one of her team.
Tania and her team have exceeded my expectations in all respects. At last I can sleep at night and find speaking to them a bright spot in my day. They quickly put me at ease by breaking down my issues into separate parts and providing solutions for each. Their honesty and really profession approach to client interactions is enhanced with their ability to make you feel that they are part of your family and really do care about outcomes that are in your best interest rather than feeding the corporate revenue stream.
I unreservedly commend Tania and her team to anyone with a Tax related issue.

Impressed with Waterhouse Lawyers and their swift response to our enquiry. Could not get a better pick in Michael with his experience and knowledge. Thank you both!

Thank you
My kids, my wife and I, cannot thank you enough.
When we thought we had lost everything you gave us hope.
You are a kind, humble and competent lawyer.
You have such amazing caring quality, so honest and such a fighter.
We will never be able to repay you.
