Meet our team

WLW Migration Lawyers was founded with a vision to bring the best of the corporate world and the best from the not-for-profit world together under one roof.

One aspect of this vision was the development of the Bridge Project, WLW’s own not-for-profit arm. The Bridge Project aims to ‘bridge the gap’ between community legal services, which are under strain, and full-fee legal services.

The first day I referred to them ,I was utterly hopeless.
With his compassionate guidance and support slowly I felt that my dream might come true and it did.
With all my heart and soul I am grateful to Simon Leske at WLW Migration Lawyers for his outstanding support throughout my permanent visa journey with his excellent expertise .
From the beginning to end, he was patient, professional, and genuinely cared about my case.
His kind advice took a heavy burden of stress off my shoulders.
Thank you so much for helping me start a stress less life in Australia.
I will definitely go to WLW for other migration cases and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate immigration support.

Ebuka Anwasi

Had a great experience with Mai, received a call from her on a simple consultation. She went above and beyond even during the call duration, providing comprehensive scenarios and possibilities, far beyond the allotted time. I was really impressed by her meticulousness and the time she gave towards my situation. For any further migration needs I will definitely be going to WLW.

Response from the owner:Dear Ebuka Thanks for your kind words for Mai, we're happy she could help answer your questions! Kind regards WLW Migration Lawyers

I had a wonderful experience working with Wei Wen, the assigned lawyer for my 482 SID application. She was responsible, professional, and incredibly reliable throughout the whole process. Honestly, she took a huge weight off our chests and made everything feel so much more manageable and gave us peace of mind at every step. Highly recommend her support if you're going through the same process.
