Rob Stevenson acted for me in a discrimination complaint against a government department. After approaching the Queensland Public Interest Law Clearing House (QPILCH) for assistance, I consider myself to be very fortunate to have had Rob take up my case and represent me. After Rob accepted my case, I was able to apply for, and secure, limited financial assistance from Legal Aid Queensland.

In dealing with my complaint, Rob went to great lengths to explain with great clarity the entire process as well as my options. Rob put all issues in layman’s terms that were easily understood. I was able to discuss all issues and concerns with Rob, to which he was always able to provide practical and professional advice.

Although having a professional approach, Rob was always extremely easy to talk to. With Rob’s assistance a very satisfactory settlement to my complaint was reached. I was extremely pleased with and grateful for Rob’s representation of my complaint. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob for legal representation.
