REVIEWS:

“We had been in negotiation with IRD for nearly 2 years with fines and interest increasing all the time. We had left the negotiations to our accountant which proved to be fruitless.
IRD had decided to instigate court action and a tax lawyer was our last option (should have been the first in hindsight) and we feel genuinely lucky to have found David Weaver and Tauranga Chambers. It is not an understatement to say he has saved our family a massive financial burden that would have been present for years to come. Use these guys – awesome to deal with and top tier lawyers.” –David Wilson

REVIEWS:

“Janine and I, (and I am sure the rest of the group will agree with us) we so much appreciate your efforts in assisting us though this challenge, particularly your professional approach to dealing/ negotiating with the council/lawyers, and to have it wrapped up in 8 months is pretty damned good, particularly when you compare to other cases with leaky homes/ building issues going on around the country, with some cases dragging on for many years. Janine and I had already started to prepare ourselves mentally and financially for the long haul and to have this all wrapped up before this Christmas is great.” –Philip and Janine
