The Penrose Triangle
"a triangular impossible object, an optical illusion consisting of an object which can be depicted in a drawing but cannot exist as a solid object"
Why the impossible triangle?
The impossible triangle is what it feels like to be embroiled in litigation - once you are on the triangle, it is impossible to get off!
How can we help?
We understand how you feel and do everything we can to help you to get you off that endless looping triangle, so that you can go back to focusing on the things that are important in life, your family, your friends and your work.
No nonsense style
“Jonathan has assisted us with a few matters. Each of these matters is now settled. I respect Jonathan’s no nonsense style, and focus on net return after time and fees. The main focus is outcomes – not litigation.“
Continuing, caring support
Jonathan listened carefully and gave calm, knowledgeable advice with continuing, caring support, not just an impersonal, rigid ‘inflexible’ approach to the matter.
The outcome was amicable, meeting our expectations with a ‘minimal worry’ process and a good final solution.
We confidently recommend Jonathan for provision of legal services.”
A good man who understands
“I’ll be giving all my mates and family your number,
if they need a damn good lawyer and better still...
a good man who understands.”
