Making legal matters easy

Crowe Legal was founded by Melanie Crowe, a local lawyer of 25 years’ experience.

Ms Crowe practises in the area of Wills and Estates. “Providing legal services in these areas requires a practical yet empathetic approach,” she said. “Many people are anxious about seeking the assistance of a lawyer and can find the process very formal and confronting.

“I think what I bring to the services I provide is very personal and compassionate. I take away the mystery; my explanations are thorough and in plain language so my clients are equipped with a practical understanding of what they need, why they need it and the process to achieve it.

She largely attends her clients in their own home. “It’s a point of difference that I know makes my clients feel more comfortable and less intimidated by the process,” she said.

Ms Crowe notes many people will procrastinate about putting into place such important measures as Wills and Enduring Powers of Attorney.

“It’s satisfying assisting my clients get their ‘legal housekeeping’ in order. It’s usually something that has been playing on their mind for some time and they are always so very relieved when it’s been addressed.”

Regarding Administration of Deceased Estates matters (grants of probate and such), she explains: “When a family member or loved one dies, it can be difficult to know where to start. In times of grief, it can all be overwhelming. I like to think I make the process as easy as it can be.”
