I am incredibly grateful to Shane and his team for their prompt response and unwavering dedication throughout my son's case. He is not only smart and impactful in getting things done,but also ensures that there are no unnecessary delays. With a direct, no-nonsense approach, he gets straight to the point and always outline realistic strategies. Shane works with a team of fantastic humble lawyers ensuring there is always someone available to answer queries. When I engaged with Shane, I was deeply scared as a new immigrant and unfairly targeted by an entire community. From the start he made us feel supported and treated us with patience and respect. He never gave false hopes.His approach was pragmatic and grounded, and he truly stood by us every step of the way. I wholeheartedly appreciate his dedication , professionalism and commitment to achieving a swift and just resolution. An estimated 18 months case brought to a close in 6 months. The best of the bestest choice when it comes to handling false allegations. Aroha nui Shane.

I was charged with false accusations (Very Serious Criminal Charges) , and the fear and stress of losing everything my freedom, my reputation, and my family. I didn’t know who to turn to, until I found Mr. Shane Tait. From the first meeting Mr. Tait and his Team, they were calm, focused, and brutally honest exactly what I needed. They took the time to understand my side of the story and built a defence that was smart, aggressive, and backed by real strategy. They explained every step of the legal process clearly, always made time to answer my questions, and fought tirelessly on my behalf to *WIN* and we won. If you’re facing criminal charges and need someone who will go above and beyond to fight for you, I highly recommend Mr. Shane Tait.
