We would like to sincerely thank Pamela Wright and the team at Stainton Chellew Lawyers for their assistance in a complex estate and Family Protection Act matter. Following the death of our mother's husband, we faced difficult personal circumstances, cross-border issues, and lengthy negotiations. Throughout the process, Pamela provided clear, practical advice and guided us with professionalism, compassion, and confidence. Thanks to Pamela's expertise and persistence, we achieved an outcome that exceeded our expectations and has provided our family with security and peace of mind during a very difficult time. We would highly recommend Pamela Wright and Stainton Chellew Lawyers to anyone needing experienced and effective representation in estate disputes and Family Protection Act matters. Thank you, Pamela, for everything you did for our family.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Victor's team on an urgent real estate transaction, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the very beginning, their level of professionalism stood out. They communicated with clarity and kept me informed at every step of the process. Given the tight deadline I was facing, their prompt assistance was invaluable. I truly appreciate their dedication and expertise, which made a potentially stressful situation much more manageable. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I highly recommend their services.

I have been dealing with Stainton and Chellew for various legal matters - House Deals; Trusts and Wills, General Legal advice since the early 2000's. They are extremely attentive, efficient and supportive. They are professional in all legal matters, including the more mundane conveyancing type work. They are extremely thorough, ticking every box when required. Their response time is excellent and make you think you are the only person of importance. They have a wonderful ability to provide excellent well thought out legal advice in everyday language not just wrapped up in legalese. Anyone looking for a Law firm in Auckland should not look any further. S&C are a great legal Team. I cannot recommend them more highly.

Pamela helped me with my divorce and separation agreement and made the whole process way easier than I expected. She’s very professional, clear, and straight to the point, which I really appreciated during a time that can otherwise feel quite stressful. She was also extremely efficient with communication — always quick to respond and keeping me updated, so nothing felt confusing or dragged out. Obviously divorce isn’t something anyone is excited to deal with, but having Pamela handle everything made the process smooth and well organised. I’m very grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her.
