I engaged Ewan Eggleston after being granted Legal Aid for my ongoing Family Court matter. From the start, I made it clear that my case was fully covered under a Legal Aid grant, and all documentation confirming this was provided to his office. Despite this, Mr Eggleston attempted to require an additional private payment of $5,000 before proceeding — on top of the approved Legal Aid funding. I found this highly inappropriate, as it placed me in a position where I was being asked to personally fund work already covered by Legal Aid. When I questioned this and asked for clarification in writing, I received no clear response or justification. As someone already approved for Legal Aid, I felt this conduct was unethical, misleading, and financially pressuring. Legal Aid exists to ensure access to justice for people who cannot afford private fees — not to be used as leverage to extract additional payments. I have since raised a formal complaint with the New Zealand Law Society and Legal Aid Services. In my experience, I cannot recommend Mr Eggleston’s services for anyone seeking transparent, fair, and legally compliant representation under a Legal Aid grant.

Very aggressive family lawyer and judge mental instantly and negative straight away and then pushy all in ten minutes of meeting absolutely disgusting behavior from one of your woman lawyers I am a fended and insulted I will making a formal complaint

Very expensive and had everything dragged out so we ended up paying a lot more for something that should of been very simple.
