Best Experience

I had the best experience with Shane and Associates. After dealing with other lawyers in Auckland CBD, Shane is the best lawyer you can deal with. He is the kind of lawyer you can trust every single word he says. Shane and his team helped me to get the best outcome. He is a professional lawyer highly recommended. Special thanks to the Legal executive Kayla Berg[h] for her support and professional communication.

Kilian & Associates were transparent, skilled, fairly priced, and truly saved me when I was close to giving up and felt completely despondent. I can't reclaim the eight years I lost by the time it was over, but thanks to the diligent and expert efforts of Kilian & Associates, I now have a fresh start and can build a better future free of that wretched shadow. I am deeply grateful for their invaluable assistance and highly recommend them to anyone that has a case worth fighting for.

Thank you so much for all your hard work. I can say you’re the best lawyer I've come across.

I'm writing to say I appreciate all you and [Kayla] done for me throughout the court; I really do appreciate it all. Been a while since we spoke but I don't know how to repay you. If there's any way I could repay you let me know and once again Thank you so much for all your hard work. I can say you’re the best lawyer I've come across. I'd rather have you as my lawyer than any other. I've kept my word, no more trouble for me.

I had an exceptional experience

I had an exceptional experience with Shane at Killian and Associates.  From the very beginning, they provided clear and professional guidance, making me feel confident and informed about every step of my case. Shane and Kayla demonstrated outstanding legal expertise and dedication, which ultimately led to a successful outcome. They were always responsive to my questions and concerns, ensuring I understood the legal jargon and procedures. Their approach and thorough preparation were evident in the courtroom, and I felt well-represented throughout the entire process. I am incredibly grateful for Killian and Associates hard work and commitment to my case. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate solicitor. Thank you, Shane and Kayla for helping me achieve a positive resolution!

[Kayla] and Shane, you have been a help to us beyond what words could say. You guys have not only kept up communication but also been very supportive of us and we very much appreciate it.

I thank you guys for all you have done and it means a lot; I can't thank Shane enough for the help he gave us even though he was already busy.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Kilian and Associates

Ten years ago, I was recommended by my firm of lawyers, (who are now part of McVeagh Fleming), to contact Kilian and Associates. As Kilian and Associates having extensive knowledge and experience in the area of taxation as Barristers and Solicitors at all levels up-to High Court. I discovered that not only did Shane Kilian and has colleague have many years of experience dealing with the Inland Revenue Department (IRD). But they previously had actually held senior positions within the IRD.

I can only surmise why they left the government department. But what I can say is, over the last 10 years, found Kilian and Associates genuinely passionate and caring people. They listen and I have every confidence their advice was well founded. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kilian and Associates.

From the first meeting, which required no upfront fee, I finally felt confident that I was in the right hands.

Seven years after a devastating loss that included my business due to a dispute with a government department, I thought I was ready to start anew. However, on a Saturday morning during breakfast with my partner, I was served documents that completely shattered me. It was overwhelmingly unjust, especially after all I had already lost, leaving me feeling utterly hopeless. After spending $5,000 on an initial consultation with a city firm that failed to reassure me, a close friend advised me to seek a second opinion. I was referred to Shane at Kilian & Associates. From the first meeting, which required no upfront fee, I finally felt confident that I was in the right hands.
