What makes Rosendorff Lawyers different?


Some lawyers create problems whereas we solve them. Some lawyers drag out cases to make more and more money at their clients’ expense. At Rosendorff Lawyers, our Melbourne law firm settles cases quickly and cost effectively with excellent outcomes for our clients. All our clients can attest to our straight talking, honest advice that ensures our clients’ interests are what drives our approach.

We have a track record of taking on the big end of town and beating them. Why? Because our Melbourne lawyers are driven by a desire to use the law to achieve outstanding results for our client in the most cost effective manner.

WHAT DO WE DO? Solve your problems in a cost effective manner that saves or makes you money.

HOW DO WE DO BUSINESS DIFFERENTLY? We give an honest appraisal of your case. We develop win/win solutions that build business revenue. Litigation is expensive. Only on a rare occasion would the costs, time and emotional turmoil of going to trial ever benefit the client. We have a track record of obtaining outstanding results for our clients.

WHO ARE OUR CUSTOMERS? Our customers are a range of individuals and small to medium sized businesses based in Australia, who value our honest, cost-effective approach to resolving their legal issues.

WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS WANT? Our clients want what any customer wants — someone they can trust who will not ‘rip them off’. So that’s what we do. We help our clients resolve their legal problems at fair and reasonable prices. The history of Rosendorff Lawyers is based in Melbourne and is now led by Brett Samuel and Chris Wray along with their experienced legal team. Together, they make Rosendorff Lawyers a trustworthy and affordable choice when it comes to legal representation .How you can benefit from our services.

The Difference Is In Our Level Of Experience Defending The Most Difficult Cases & Our Rigorous Approach To Each Matter


  • I have known Brett Samuel and Rosendorff Lawyers for over 18 months. Brett is a commercially astute lawyer who provides excellent service, quick turnaround, responsive and useful advice and above all understands that clients expect results not just legal gobbledygook.

    I have referred Brett to a number of clients requiring commercial legal expertise and each has commented on his service and value for money approach to the law.

    I have also personally engaged Brett on a number of commercial and private matters and have found him to be an excellent ally. His advice is highlighted by providing options to the client but importantly, recommending a course of action that minimises risk and maximises outcomes. To date this approach has proven to be very valuable and what I, as a client, expects.

    I have no hesitation in recommending Brett for any commercial matter that you need advice on.

  • I have used the services of Rosendorff Lawyers for a number of years now and have found them to be a great asset to my Business Sunburst Group. Their advice concerning contractual law and from time to time commercial litigation has been indispensable. Brett Samuel is always a pleasure to deal with as he is meticulous in his research prior to any legal action we might be considering. My association with Rosendorff Lawyers has helped my business to make the correct informeddecisions and in doing so has enabled me to save many thousands of dollars that otherwise uniformed decisions may have cost me.
