Firm review summary
Buddle McCleary Kennedy received praise for property and estate law services, with one reviewer commending staff member Jade's work on a house purchase and sale. However, a client reported being charged significantly more than expected for purchase and sales contracts, characterising the experience as unaffordable and poor value. Most recent feedback highlighted professional service and approachable staff dynamics. The firm's reputation centres on property law work, though billing practices appear inconsistent across client experiences.

Every lawyer practising in New Zealand must hold a current practising certificate from the New Zealand Law Society, and each one appears on the Law Society's public register with the areas of practice they choose to list. The register is the place to confirm a lawyer's standing.
LawyerFinder NZ reproduces register details as they stood when we last read the register, and links to each lawyer's entry so you can check it is still current. When choosing a lawyer, ask about their experience with matters like yours and what they will charge.
