“Working with Shannon was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She represented us in both the sale of our first home and the purchase of our second, and we couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer to guide us through such an important transition.
From the very beginning, her communication was clear, prompt, and professional—and that consistency carried through every step of the process. We had plenty of questions along the way, and Shannon always took the time to answer each one thoroughly and patiently, making sure we felt confident and informed at all times.
What could have been a stressful experience felt seamless thanks to her organization, expertise, and attention to detail. We truly felt supported and well represented throughout. We are incredibly grateful for her help and would highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and dedicated lawyer.”

“Buying and selling your homes, can be a very stressful time. It is tremendously important that the lawyer you have to do these transactions for you knows, what you don’t. After buying and selling many homes over the years so much has changed in more recent years, and we needed a lawyer who was up with the play, and a Specialist in that field.
Shannon was able to answer our questions with insight and knowledge, and for us, in some quite unique situations; in both the selling of our home (American buyers) initially, and all that incorporated, and then dealings in getting our contract together for our next purchase, which incorporated a lot key negotiations to get it together.
When I called or messaged Shannon stressed with my concerns, she would calm me down and say ”leave it with me and I will sort”. And lo and behold it was.
Her calm and diligence in all her way of dealing with said situations, helped hugely in our decision making, and therefore reaching a successful transaction in both the Sale, and purchase of both homes.”
-Esther + Warrick
“Shannon represented us with the sale of our house in Tamahere. She reviewed the estate agents contract and picked up on issues that we hadn’t considered.
Her service was prompt and efficient and she was very proactive coming to visit us at home outside of working hours to get the deal across the line. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending Shannon.”
