"Dear Dom,

Thankyou for the exhaustive work you did handling my difficult divorce and custody case. You accepted my case and immediately took action. You expediently dispatched with several orders of business that had been languishing in the courts. You then proactively advanced other aspects of my case, taking the initiative to phone the other solicitor always with an eye to resolving issues by negotiated agreement.
When agreement wasn't possible, you wasted no time in taking a strong legal stance. ln court I found you to be well-prepared, confident in his position, and assertive yet polite and respectful.

In my property case, my situation became your number one priority and you never lost sight of who the case was about. You made sure that everything we asked for was in my best interests. For me, you built a strong case for my property rights and my future financial potential. As a result after 16 months of nearly unbearable anguish, I was awarded the the settlement I originally asked for.

Throughout my whole case Dom was cheerful, upbeat, and encouraging. No matter how anxious or angry I was, I always felt better after meeting with you. I was always confident my case was in good hands. Thank you."

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and you team for the professional, caring and understanding manner in which you helped me through my recent property settlement dispute. Difficult times require a skill set unique in its ability to separate fact from fiction and reality from emotion. Your professional skills and human yet firm approach enabled a fair and equitable closure, you were always a phone call away and I will recommend you to anyone in a similar situation. Many Thanks."

"Having to go to Family Court can be a scary experience. However, when we obtained Dom Velcic to represent my sister Michelle, he was able to take the fear out of our minds. Not only did he school us on court proceedings (without overwhelming us), he took a genuine interest in our case - getting to know us, our dreams and our goals. Dom’s friendliness and professionalism was the perfect mix for us to get through the whole experience with confidence and ease of mind. He made all the difference for us."
