Review Summary

Clients praise the firm's friendliness, professionalism, and helpfulness, often noting they do not feel overcharged. However, several reviews report severe communication issues, including ignored emails and voicemails, exorbitant billing, and lack of response until a formal complaint was made to the Law Society. One client says they were "ripped off" with a bill triple the expected amount for a standard transfer. Overall, experiences are polarized between extremely positive and very negative.

I went to this firm based on location and rating. I found out why they have such a great rating. Do helpful and friendly. Not money greedy like many firms I have dealt with before. Fully recommend.

I went to this firm as they were local but made the mistake of telling them what the other related party's lawyers were charging them. I got ripped off in terms of the price and when I raised questions and requested timesheet or the job card on the amount of time spent and details, I was completed ignored. What was a standard transfer turned out to a shocking price which was more than triple the amount! I would not recommend Wells and Co. They lost a long term customer for a short term gain.

Was obligated to communicate with them. I say "with" but it was more me asking questions and them ignoring me. Despite leaving voicemails, (coz you can't get past the receptionist) repeatedly emailing and eventually contacting the founding partner, I only got a response when I made a complaint to the NZ Law Society. Absolute dumpster fire situation trying to talk to them. 0/10 would not recommend.
