  • "I appointed Buckett Law to represent me 2020-2021, and the professional, compassionate guidance and advice received from the Buckett Law Team was much valued and appreciated. On a personal note, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Matt Belesky whose confidence and knowledge of Employment law gave me the support I needed. Matt guided me through the process of the mediation and also worked impressively towards a settlement. I would use Buckett Law again!!."

Their professional integrity and experience shows through in everything they provide and support us with. They are not afraid to tell it like it is, simple and direct, which is the best counsel you can ask for. With us based in Auckland and them in Wellington the distance has never been an issue as BuckettLaw is a true partner in our business."
