Want financial clarity and to avoid future disputes.

Parents in custody matters

Want stability and security for their children.

Those inheriting money or assets

Want protection and peace of mind.

Families dealing with violence

Want safety and urgent legal intervention.

Teresa Fuller

We cannot thank Aggie and her team enough for the care and attention they gave our family during settlement of estate, Your empathy and guidance was greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend.

Kate Tory

I’m very thankful that my financial planner referred me to Aggie Vlahos. She guided me through negotiating, documenting and completing my family law property settlement with my ex. Aggie kept me well informed at every step and her supportive and approachable manner made a very stressful period in my life far easier to navigate. Would absolutely recommend.

Michael Woellner

Outstanding support and professionalism

I can’t thank Danielle, Aggie, and the entire ELITLAW team enough for the work they did for me during a very stressful and complex time. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough. Danielle and Aggie communicated clearly, explained each step in a way that made sense, and genuinely cared about getting the best possible outcome, not just ticking boxes. What stood out most was how calm and supportive Aggie was with the pressure of time we were under. She handled everything efficiently, met deadlines, and made a situation that could have felt overwhelming feel manageable and under control. I'm extremely grateful for the expertise, commitment, and the respect shown throughout the process. If you’re looking for a legal team that truly has your back, ELITLAW is outstanding. Highly recommend.

Marina Kozul

I highly recommend Aggie Vlahos and the team at Elit. I received timely, sensitive, and strategic advice that allowed me to move forward with clarity. I came across her after reading reviews from others she had decisively helped, and now I'm grateful to be one of those people too.

Peter Ingram

My deepest gratitude to Aggie Vlahos from Elit Lawyers for her empathy, professionalism and guidance through a very tough and emotional season. The complexities of my situation and the emotional upheaval were met with calm and accurate advice and intentional determination to gain fairness and the best possible outcome for all involved. After building rapport early on with Aggie, I trusted her and the process with reassurance and peace. I cannot recommend Aggie, and the staff at Elit Lawyers highly enough, except for 5 out of 5 stars.

Harry Zorbas

Aggie and her team are exceptional at what they do. Their professionalism, promptness and dedication to my case is unparalleled with other lawyers that I have previously dealt with. From the very beginning, I knew I could trust that the team were representing my best interests. They worked tirelessly with me to achieve a favourable outcome and I am very grateful for their support over this time. If you are in need of legal assistance, this is the team for you.
