Simply put, Foster Johnson is the absolute best in the business! Averil and Brooke have assembled a fantastic and formidable team whose compassion, empathy and professionalism are beyond reproach! I would not have been able to get through the last 2.5 years without the superb support that Averil provided me with. She is a lawyer with boundless energy and is always laser focused on achieving the absolute very best results for her clients. I cannot recommend Averil and the FOJO team highly enough.

10/10 would (and have) recommend Brooke and her team to represent you in your family law matter. Brooke and the team were highly efficient, professional, honest, empathetic and pragmatic.

On one occasion during my matter some papers needed to be completed and lodged urgently. Brooke called me on her day off while her child was having a nap to talk over and resolve the issue.

Brooke will not waste your time or money. She is smart, efficient and she'll have your back and get you the result you deserve!

Gemma also stepped in to assist when things were urgent and was also all the things - kind, smart, efficient and thorough!

Run, don't walk 😉

My perception about lawyers has completely changed when I engaged Averil Foster to handle my family law matter . From the very first phone call, she was professional, empathetic & she took the time to understand my highly complex finance case which involves multiple companies, interestates properties and international transactions and provided me with clear, concise advice on the best course of action to take.

Throughout the legal process, she was very communicative, keeping me informed every step of the way. She was always available to answer my questions and concerns and was always responsive to my emails and phone calls.

What impressed me most about Averil was her compassionate nature, commitment to making a positive difference in people's lives, and ability to handle complex legal issues with ease. She's highly skilled in her profession, and knowledgeable and experienced in family law. Averil went above and beyond to ensure that I was always doing ok throughout the entire time and best possible outcome.

I cannot recommend Averil Foster highly enough. She provided me with exceptional legal representation while also showing empathy and dedication to my case. If anyone out there is in need of a family lawyer, I highly recommend working with Averil Foster.

Foster Johnson Family and Collaborative Lawyers provided me with excellent family law advice during 2022 and 2023, initially as a paying client and subsequently on a pro-bono basis.
I approached the firm seeking formal recognition for my role in parenting my granddaughter. Olivia Gesini drew on her extensive experience as a collaborative specialist by developing and implementing a range of strategies to facilitate the agreement of both parents. The valuable perspectives provided by Olivia and her team clarified for me the pros and cons of Family Court action after other avenues were tried. Ultimately, I resolved not to involve the Family Court and felt empowered and supported in my decision. Thank you again to the partners and wonderful team at Foster Johnson!

I have a complicated family matter that Averil has assisted me with over several years now. She's the kind of "tuff" that gives me the confidence to seek her advice over and over again. Her team, including Lauren Callahan, are hardworking, professional and mindful to keep costs down.

I cannot speak highly enough of Brooke, Averil and their team. Their expertise, knowledge, professionalism, care and guidance was exceptional. Thank you Brooke and the FoJo team for going above and beyond to get my settlement finalised and for making me feel supported through every step of this difficult process.

Unbeknown to the FosterJohnson Team, I spent time and money interviewing various Law Firms via Zoom to see who was best fit for my case. I met Brooke and Lauren and latter Courtney; within minutes it was clear that the strategies and direction was professionalism working in unison. I have trusted the advice given by FosterJohnson and this has put my case in a good position. Once this case has been finalised, I have spoken with the Brooke to ensure that my family and I are protected by the way of a Will and any future Prenup Aggrement.

Olivia, Gemma and Anna are amazing to work with. They got back to me on all questions and were fast to reply. They are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I strongly recommended this firm. They supported me through my matter, with care and skill. I didn't feel like "just another client" with this firm. Thank you all so much.
