I arrived on their doorstep totally naive about property purchase. Theresa Fitzsimmons was so helpful, patient and knowledgeable. She talked me through the process step by step, reassuring, answering all my questions with a calm professional manner. The environment was welcoming and professional without being pompous. A little shoutout to the lovely receptionist too, who took my initial call, listened politely (and always a friendly greeting) and put me through to Theresa. If you are a first home/land buyer I highly recommend!
Austin is a great and amazing lawyer. He helped us with a case that felt almost impossible, yet he guided us through every step with confidence and care. The process was complex and overwhelming, but his clear guidance, kindness, and empathy made everything feel manageable. I deeply appreciate his strong awareness of refugee, disability, and human rights, qualities that are rare to find all in one person. His thoughtful and compassionate approach brought us so much relief and played a major role in the positive outcome. Thank you, Austin, for your professionalism, dedication, and unwavering support. You truly make a difference!
Highly recommend the team at Young Hunter, as they're engaging, readily available, and always willing to assist. Modern office, with well-appointed premises, conveniently located on Victoria Street with plenty of parking.
I would say one the best Immigration Lawyer I met here in NZ until get my residency. They are very professional & top of this subject with wealth of knowledge & experience. I met couple of Immigration experts but none of them did a proper eligibility assessment to apply under SMC. Finally, I met Christine, at Young Hunter and she did a great job to assess my current job role, qualifications and previous work experience and guided throughout the whole process. So, I'm happy to say within 3 & half months I got my residency. Thank you, Christine and Young Hunter team, for your good work and great cooperation over the last few months. Finally, I'm a New Zealand Resident now!
Simon Graham from Young Hunter saved me. I had to change my lawyer 2 days before we had to submit our papers to the court and spent thousands of dollars with my previous lawyer who was incompetent and left me panicking 2 days before the deadline of submission. I panicked and looked for a law firm on google and luckily I found Simon who accepted me even when we’re time constraint. His communication is amazing. It was very clear what he could do and what it was going to cost and in the end Simon got us a very positive outcome where the other lawyer told us to take it on the chin. Thanks again Simon and Young Hunter :)
