If you could ask me, my partner and I would suggest James Mcleod as your representative especially on your partner related visa application. He provides outstanding service and clearly knows his job really well. He guided us step by step throughout the process and made sure that all the documents were perfect. When I got the news that my partnership based work visa has been approved, I was shocked because it only took 6 weeks for the application to be approved. We were shocked and happy at the same time with the excellent results. I highly recommend you choose James Mcleod as your immigration lawyer and you will definitely be amazed with the outcome. -- ~ flare r

I highly recommend James! He is incredibly knowledgeable, honest, trustworthy, and professional. When I consulted him about a partnership visa, he was completely honest with me and explained that my case wasn’t viable, advising me against pursuing it. Instead, he suggested a different visa pathway that would actually work for me, even though it wasn't a visa category he personally handled. He was empathetic, supportive, and carefully examined my unique circumstances to find the absolute best option for me. In my opinion, he is a very kind and genuinely cool guy! 😎 I initially wished he could have assisted with my application, but he honestly turned it down because it wasn't the right fit. I followed his selfless advice anyway and successfully received my resident visa. Thank you so much! ☺️ **P.S.** I promised I'd let you know if I got my resident visa. It took a while, but the answer is: YES. I did it! 🎉 ~ Hana K

Huge thank you to James for all his guidance during this phase as I made my application for a partnership work visa to join my boyfriend in New Zealand. James was very professional and had everything laid out for us. He provided prompt communication and clarity whenever we had questions. The whole process was smooth and easy to follow, with proper timelines to keep us in check. I highly recommend James if you are seeking assistance with immigration to NZ and want a peace of mind. Thank you so much, James. It was such a pleasure working with you, and I wish you the best success in all that you do! Cheers! ~ Jolene L

James guided me expertly through the NZ immigration process. My partner and I were impressed with his personal yet efficient approach to our case from our first meeting and the speed at which he acted on our requests. Applying for a partnership based visa in the middle of a pandemic felt like an impossible task to us, but James' realistic and positive analysis of our case was reassuring and something we hadn't received from other lawyers. We believed he was the best person for our case from day one, and thankfully we were right. The process was smooth, and we couldn't have asked for a better and quicker outcome. Thank you James! ~ Sam B

We worked with James on our Partnership Based Work Visa which got approved today. We’ve had a pretty complex case, which is why we chose to reach out to James. We’ve read so many wonderful Google reviews about his service, and can confirm that he indeed is one of the best lawyers (in our opinion, the best) to assist with Partnership Based Visas. He ensured to let us know on all the possible scenarios of our case, although this did not hold him back, as he ensured to deliver excellent results. He was really lovely and easy to work with and always went the extra mile. I highly recommend him for his services, you won’t regret your decision! ~ Melindri M

James is an absolute master at what he does. I came in with a last-minute request and a very tight deadline, and James took the time to create a structured plan to ensure everything would be completed on schedule so my application could launch on time. He kept in close contact throughout the entire process and clearly communicated what was needed and when. Thanks to his expertise and reassurance, I had a strong feeling everything would work out — and sure enough, he got the job done with exceptional results and no delays. I can genuinely say this with a huge smile. If there’s ever any doubt about seeking legal advice, I highly recommend doing it — especially with James. His professionalism, knowledge, and dedication are unmatched. Thank you very much, James. I will definitely be getting back in touch for my next application, and I will continue to encourage everyone I speak to, to do the same. Absolutely top-class work. Top-tier service. Would give more than 5 stars if I could. ~ Jelte T

James did a fantastic job with our families application for permanent residence visas. Our circumstances meant our application was not completely straightforward, but James gave us great advice and a detailed list of everything we should submit. He meticulously checked everything we sent him, ensuring our submitted documents were free of errors and we were very pleased when our visas were granted much faster than expected without any issues. Would definitely recommend James, whether it be just for immigration or advice or his full visa application support. ~ Jamie R

When my American partner and I made the decision to move her to New Zealand we contacted James to help us with the Partnership Work Visa process. James laid out the pathway for attaining the visa in an easy to understand and methodical way and assisted us in gathering and submitting the documents needed at every step of the application process, and made the whole process far more manageable than had we done it on our own. We highly recommend James McLeod for anyone seeking immigration to NZ and appreciate all the time and work he put in to helping us continue our relationship together in NZ. ~ Dominic S

It was a pleasure working with James and I’m sure that you will understand the hugely important role he has played in our ability to have my girlfriend relocate from Laos and stay in NZ (now as my wife). We can't thank James enough for all his patience and understanding on a journey that neither my wife nor I fully understood at our first meeting. He has been a great support for me during a very stressful time knee deep in paperwork and jumping through multiple immigration hoops at the same time. We couldn’t have done it without him and will always be grateful. Ian & Som😊 ~ Ian C

We engaged James almost 2 years ago to assist us with our partnership based work and subsequent resident visas. We found him to be incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and efficient which made the process so much easier for us. We would have really struggled to navigate the various evidence requirements for each of the applications if it hadn't been for his assistance and would highly recommend his services to anyone facing the same challenges themselves. ~ James M
