We can only accept urgent contract review requests on Friday 4 July. No more free or standard review requests will be accepted this week, ahead of our Winter closure from 7-18 July. Free and standard review requests can be submitted again in the afternoon on Friday 18 July.

We take the stress and hassle out of buying and selling a property, so you can spend more time doing the things you love.

About

Since 2014, we have helped thousands of people buy, sell and transfer property in Victoria, led by our founder Kate Ashmor.

Kate loves conveyancing (yes, really!). Her vast experience and knowledge about Victorian residential property, and her passion for oustanding customer service, is poured into every contract review, and every conveyancing transaction.

Experience counts

Kate has nearly twenty years of broad and diverse experience as a lawyer, including in commercial private practice, at Victorian State Government departments and agencies, and in-house within the banking and finance sector. She chaired the board of Caulfield Park Bendigo Bank for four years, is a Past Convenor of Victorian Women Lawyers, a Past President of Australian Women Lawyers, and she has previously served as an elected Councillor for the City of Glen Eira.  

Since founding Ashmor Legal in 2014, Kate and her team have reviewed tens of thousands of Victorian property contracts and acted for thousands of diverse clients around the world. Kate is highly regarded for her attention to detail, her broad knowledge of Victorian real estate, local government, federal and State politics, and her genuine care for her clients: "There are no silly questions!".

Kate holds Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Arts (Politics) degrees from Monash University, and is a member of the Law Institute of Victoria and the Australian Institute of Company Directors.

And her coffee order is: "Almond sticky chai with honey, please!"

We can't recommend Kate highly enough.

We have dealt with many conveyancers and lawyers for property purchases and sales, and Kate is among the best if not the best! She communicated and guided us with updates and what to expect at every step...she protected our interests.

If I could give 10 stars, I would have.

I couldn't have asked for a better advisor than Kate...Her strong work ethics really showed through and I appreciate her for the advice. Communication was timely, impeccable and overall pleasant.

We highly recommend Ashmor Legal to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable conveyancer!

Our experience with Kate was exceptional. I was always at peace knowing that everything is under control. Kate is an awesome expert and person to deal with. We had some extraordinary circumstances and she was always understanding and helpful.

We were absolutely blown away by the level of service we received from Ashmor Legal.

Kate is knowledgeable and professional yet friendly and approachable. Whatever we needed she was able to deliver, and with lightning fast response times. Knowing Kate was on our team gave us a lot of confidence throughout the whole house-buying process.

So knowledgeable, transparent and efficient
Sam J · Jan 2024

Kate is fantastic. Once the sale had started, she was on the ball and did everything possible for a favourable outcome for us. Definitely worth the money over a regular conveyancer. We'll be using Ashmor Legal again and again!

Incredibly thorough and professional!

Kate was incredibly thorough and professional in guiding me through the minefield that is purchasing a property. Absolutely no hesitation to recommend her to anyone requiring conveyancing services.

Kate was nothing short of outstanding.
R. Chew · Aug 2023

Her attention to detail and & level of care was fantastic. She was easy to contact (via WhatsApp or email) & would respond quickly. Despite the experience being entirely digital, we always felt well looked after by a team that actually worked in our interest.

10/10!
Wayne O · Jul 2023

Kate everything explained thoroughly and she answered any and all questions we had (first home purchasers). Honestly can’t recommend Ashmor Legal enough. We actually decided on them through online word of mouth/reviews, and we are really happy we did.

A unique pleasant experience that is beyond words.
J. Desuyo · May 2023

We were very pleased with Kate’s exceptional service in assisting us to purchase a property.

I was so glad I had Ashmor Legal on my side when buying my first home.
Toby L · Feb 2023

Kate was extremely responsive and concise, and most of all she was clear and upfront about everything. This counts for a lot when you're buying for you first time. Kate had my back the whole way and made me feel like I wasn't alone...highly recommend!

Highly recommended!
K. Ng · Dec 2022

Kate and her team were so good to work with. Very thorough, professional, personable and everything was explained clearly.

If you’re looking someone who will place your interest at the centre of everything and guide you every step of the way, don’t look any further than Ashmor Legal!
