I am so happy with the level of ongoing service I have received in particular with Olivia Karitons-Ellis who goes above and beyond. The oracle service has been amazing and well worth money spent as a new practice owner of Auckland Cosmetic Dental Clinic. The timeframes to get work back has been exceptional and there is no delay in getting things actioned. Olivia's knowledge of employment law is amazing and I feel well supported. I highly recommend Olivia and Buxton Coates its the one subscription that is a must for any practice owner.

I would like to send my thanks to you and your team for being extremely professional and pull through the completion of dental practice purchase at a very thin deadline of events which was tense but had a desired outcome due to hard work of everyone at Buxton Coates.Right from the beginning communication was good. I would specially thanks Deniz for working this through out of hours and Abigail who had been really responsive.Every time I called the office there is a definite attempt to resolve the issue which I suppose is good practice.

Buxton Coates offer more than just HR consultancy – they're like a trusted friend who's got your back no matter what. Lizzie, one of their stellar team members, deserves a shoutout for being an absolute rock star. Her advice is not only spot-on but also comes with a reassuring touch that makes tough situations feel a little less daunting. As someone who's been out of the HR game for a bit, reconnecting with Lizzie has been a game-changer. She's helped me brush up on my knowledge and tackle challenges with confidence, like catching up with an old friend who knows all the latest gossip.The support from Buxton Coates goes beyond just business – it's personal. With Sarah, Lizzie and the team, it feels like you're part of a family, not just another client. Whether I'm facing a tricky HR puzzle or just need someone to bounce ideas off of, they're always there with a listening ear and a wealth of expertise. Buxton Coates isn't just about getting the job done; it's about making sure you feel supported every step of the way. They've truly made a positive impact on my business, and I couldn't be more grateful.

I used this firm recently for advice on my employment’s contract and changes that happened since I’ve signed. Elizabeth who was dealing with my case was very professional and helpful. She was very prompt to answer my concerns in great details. This was my second time using this firm for advice and both times very happy with their services. It shows about whole company being organised and knowledgeable. I recommend them to all and I use them myself in the future.

My expertise is dentistry and when i needed legal advice i needed someone /a compony to give me the support and reassurance that i was being protected and made to feel like i was a priority . This legal support and advice came in the form of FTA law with Elizabeth Lust and the employment team being by my side. One of there roles was to negotiate my associates agreement and without there involvement i feel i would have been in a vulnerable position. Her reception staff including olivia and happi were always friendly and eager to help .Again i can only thank Louisa and her team for their professionalism and will recommend FTA law to my peers.

I recently used the FTA law service regarding a contract that I wanted advice on. Being newly qualified in my profession I was unsure of what to expect from a contract and what expectations an employer may require from myself other than the usual job responsibilities. Elizabeth L. was fantastic from start to finish, she really helped me breakdown the contract and made me understand it in an easy way. We even discussed some points over the phone which I found very helpful. I could not rate the service any higher. Thank you again Elizabeth L.

Andrea of FTA Law led the HR management team for us for us in dealing with some extremely difficult staffing issues. The whole saga lasted over a year and FTA were on hand at any time to offer advice, guidance and innumerable draft letters. We had a successful resolution thanks entirely to the company. I feel that FTA Law really did offer a superb service, they were approachable, offered guidance when requested and could translate from and to fluent legalese. I cannot thank them enough, we would have crumpled without them. In addition I feel their HR management contract, for the service I received, offered excellent value for money. Highly recommended.

From start to finish, Carley Ellis and team did an exceptional job in handling the acquisition of a commercial property investment on my behalf. I was kept fully informed of progress throughout and they were very approachable and responsive to any queries I raised. Carley and team demonstrated a high level of expertise and experience in handling a relatively complex matter, which involved a number of parties, with a requirement to complete the transaction within a tight timescale. Many thanks from a happy first time customer of FTA Law. 5*

Lindsay Dixon worked on a couple of cases for me and I cannot recommend her highly enough:Knowledge base - extensive and comprehensive. She was always ahead of the curve and strategised superbly throughout.Communication - clear and punctual. Available out of hours for time critical matters. Always showed empathy when needed. Humble, kind and does not talk down to you like many arrogant solicitors.Expenditure - Always felt she was going out of her way to keep my costs down. Does not take advantage of you.A rare breed of lawyer who is down to earth, gives you full attention whilst delivering the success you need.

Have been using the Team at FTA for a couple of years now, and more recently using their 'Oracle' Service. Exceptionally professional and responsive service is the norm, and the breadth of knowledge from the team is excellent. All this is very reassuring especially as when you need this service, you are likely to be experiencing some form of HR situation that is well out of your expertise! Very happy client here, and feel this is one of the more important business investments I make each year..

I have used FTA Law for all my HR processes across 3 dental practices for 5 years now and just do not know how I thought I could "do HR" myself before that. The support they provide is personal, responsive and reassuring.

I would highly recommend this firm if you want great HR advice and complete peace of mind.

Without doubt one of the best investments I’ve made during practice ownership.Impressed by the ability to contact the team and always have my call answered.They’re patient and understanding, drafting and redrafting documents as required for a busy and dynamic practice.I’d recommend the Oracle service to any practice owner and suggest they make the move sooner rather than later.

I approached FTA Law, via recommendation, for employment and HR advice as I required clarity regarding furlough leave for my employees. Sarah, was the one that provided me with my advice regarding the sensitive issue She knew exactly what’s she was talking about, especially regarding something that had only been issued to the public a few days previous. Sarah answered my immediate questions and gave me clarity on the situation without hitting me with legal jargon. I would highly recommend Sarah for her employment expertise.
