I called around a few firms seeking urgent assistance close to the xmas period. It was difficuilt to find anyone open and those that were had young blonde types answering the phones and unable to help. As soon as the home legal receptionist answered I could hear the genuine care in her voice. Lately Michael promptly got back to me and helped the same day with what was a curley issue, going above and beyond to help me when it was of no benefit to them to spend time on me. Hence I feel obliged to at least write this review for them. I feel blessed to have found this team. Thank you very much.

Tim was the absolute man, my fiancé and I were buying our first home and he put up with all my punishing questions, made us feel super comfortable and honestly made the whole process easy as. Can’t recommend enough. Shot Tim!

I can’t recommend Homelegal highly enough. Sam and Amanda were superb. We were difficult clients buying our first NZ home. We knew nothing about the NZ process, bought while still in the UK and had a challenging negation. Sam and Amanda were patient, supportive and hugely knowledgeable, not only keeping us on the legal straight and narrow, but coaching us through the process. We are hugely grateful for their support.

I have to say, dealing with Tim and Michael was probably the best legal experience I've had. They understood what was required, truly had my best interests at heart, and worked efficiently and quickly so I knew where we were at during every stage of the process. Worth their weight in gold. Thank you.
