Immigration
Specialists
Since 1996

We have been doing New Zealand immigration for a long time. Why? Because it is really satisfying to help change people’s lives, by finding new ways to attack the problems that they bring to us. We love the many challenges of this work, which keep changing from week to week.

Getting to a solution sometimes calls us to use left-field thinking, going beyond the surface facts. We can’t always find the winning answer. But our track record of success shows that we don’t like to give up or to lose.

At Laurent Law we bring nearly 40 years of combined experience to the table. Let us put them to work for you.

“Sahar from Laurent Law was absolutely incredible”

Sahar from Laurent Law was absolutely incredible. Her and her team helped us in a way that we could only dream of. Sahar was efficient, detailed and very professional. She assisted our sister with an appeal for residency and her attention to detail, compelling argument and brilliant skill helped our family remain together in New Zealand. We highly recommend this firm.

“Extremely grateful”

Extremely grateful to Sahar at Laurent Law for all her hard work and diligence in helping my family with a tricky visa appeal to the Minister of Immigration. Was the last throw of the dice for us and using an experienced firm like Laurent Law was definitely worth it.

“I believe that Laurent Law has played an important role in my life path”

I am a client of Laurent Law, and I am a student at the University of Auckland. I believe that Laurent Law has played an important role in my life path.My application for a New Zealand visa was rejected, and I had to face the consequences of the end of my  future professional pathways and go back to my home country.

Under urgent circumstances, I found Mr. James Turner and Mr. Laurent representing my request to submit a reconsideration application. The result is successful. Now I have the chance to continue living in New Zealand.
