I found Turner Hopkins very professional and reliable. As first-time homebuyers, we sought not only professional advice but also someone to protect us and help us find the right property. Tya was exceptionally helpful throughout the process. She provided valuable insights and guidance, ensuring that we made informed decisions every step of the way. We are grateful for all those amazing ladies' hard work, and we highly recommend their services to anyone looking to purchase their first home.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Paul to secure our parent resident visa, and we couldn't be more grateful for his exceptional service. From start to finish, Paul demonstrated remarkable proactivity, professionalism, and dedication, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Paul to anyone seeking immigration assistance. His exceptional service, proactive nature, and professional conduct make him an outstanding agent. Thank you, Paul, for everything you've done for us!

Stephen has always offered great advice over the 20 years I have been dealing with him . Above all his attention to detail is very reassuring. The business portrays a professional team environment.

~ Survey Respondent
Also, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks and gratitude to Turner Hopkins especially to you Maam Olga, for the help and assistance you have extended to me throughout the smooth process of the claims. This wouldn't be possible without you and it's a great relief for me. Though, we are just communicating through this media but the trust, compassion and love is there.

~ L G - Property Client
Thank you so much for your assistance in this matter. You have been so sweet and helpful and have made a stressful life event a bit easier. If I ever make it back to New Zealand one day (which I would love to) I will buy you a drink! Better yet, a bottle of wine!

~ Satisfied Family Law Client
I was referred to Paul four years ago by my cousin. Since our first interaction with Paul my family and I have had the most amazing journey. It's been a rollercoaster ride, with Covid lockdown thrown into the mix, but Paul kept us focussed on the prize and helped to ease our fears. I'm so glad that we decided to persevere with the move. Paul didn't make us feel like just another client.

~ L C - Immigration Client
For over eight years, I have always found Turner Hopkins level of service excellent and their work to a very high standard. The best firm with very positive experiences. I would highly recommend them.

~ D S - Property Client
We cannot thank you enough for your help with our purchase! You have been wonderful to deal with and so proactive (and patient with my numerous emails). We will be visiting NZ in April so will make sure we drop in to thank you in person.

~ Satisfied Immigration Client
I wanted to thank you and your colleagues for many years of excellent service to the Bank. You have an outstanding business that has proved to be one of the most reliable and ethical businesses that Collections have dealt with in the almost 9 years I was with the Bank.

~ Head of Collections
I have engaged with a number of the people in the firm and always found them professional, punctual in their responses and very sound in the advice provided.

~ D R - Commercal Client
Timely communication and variable explained so well up front. Easy to contact and I definitely had trust in both Paul and Jackie .

~ Survey Respondent
Joy and her team helped us very professionally and comprehensively. She has organized everything’s for us and considered everything we need to pay attention to. We are extremely happy with Joy and her work. I will be Joy’s loyal client!

~ Property Client
Turned around an unpleasant neighbour dispute situation for me so I had a very favourable outcome. Avdo and Kate gave good advice and were reassuring throughout. It did take a while to resolve but that had more to do with the other party drawing things out rather than anything Avdo was doing.

~ Survey Respondent
Throughout an incredibly complex and emotionally taxing process, their professionalism, clarity, and genuine commitment to our case have been invaluable. Despite being based at the opposite end of the North Island, we always felt fully supported and informed. Our matter involved navigating the legal requirements of government protocol and property acquisition processes, which added layers of complexity and stress. Phil and Samantha brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise in this area, ensuring that all legal obligations were met and that our rights and interests were protected throughout.

~ Public Works Client
Dear Catherine, I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you for your support throughout the case. Your steady guidance made all the difference in successfully resolving the matter. It was a challenging experience, but having you in my corner gave me the confidence and support I needed to stand up for myself and see it through. Please know that I will gladly recommend your services to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you once again for everything.
