How Kennedy & Associates Can Help You

Conveyancing & Property Law

We have up to date technology to assist our team in providing you with accurate & efficient advice and service.

Whether you are living in Motueka or overseas; buying or selling property; raising a mortgage; or subdividing, we can assist in advising you and ensuring you protect your most valuable asset.

We can help review your LIM, title, building requirements and all aspects of your property matters.

Trusts

We can assist in setting up your Family Trust. Trusts are created for various reasons and we can discuss these with you.

We offer an initial free interview to help determine whether or not a trust is appropriate for your needs.

Wills & Estate Planning

It is important to have an up to date will to ensure your wishes are met when you die.

Your assets, relationship status and children can all influence your decisions. For example, if you're in a second relationship you may need to ensure you structure your affairs to take into account two or more families.

We have a comprehensive estate administration practice to ensure your will is administered correctly & follows your wishes.

We also advise on Estate Planning, Powers of Attorney & Enduring Powers of Attorney.

Family Law

The current Relationship Property Legislation contains a number of essential provisions that must be followed. It is essential to ensure that you receive sound independent and objective advice.

This applies equally to an agreement prepared at the beginning of a relationship & to one prepared when a couple separate.

We can also advise you on how to limit the effects of the Act before you enter into a relationship.

This can include a "Contracting Out" agreement or the formation of a Family Trust.

Overseas Investment

We can advise on the provisions of the Overseas Investment Act and whether or not an application for consent to purchase land in New Zealand is required.

Should you require consent, we can help you through the application process.
