Immigration law and policy is a maze and it is very easy to put a foot wrong without skilled assistance.

Laurent Law’s professional commitment guarantees that they will use their best skills on behalf of their clients. To ensure they live up to this guarantee they have installed advanced systems so that client files are maintained on a central legal practice management system, accessible to every member of the firm. This system records a summary of each file. As documents are the lifeblood of the work of lawyers, they are created automatically from this centralised data. All file documents including letters, emails and faxes are stored in an electronic retrieval system which makes for a very efficient practice.

Simon Laurent has specialised in immigration work since 1996, with a special interest in refugees. He was until recently Chairman of the New Zealand Association for Migration and Investment (NZAMI), the industry representative body. Simon has worked with Immigration New Zealand over the application of law and policy and has prepared Select Committee submissions on the new Immigration Act passed in 2009 as well as the Immigration Advisers Licensing Act 2007, and has gained much insight from these official roles which he puts into use for his clients. This also helps prepare them for future trends in New Zealand immigration.

For clients wanting to start or buy a business in New Zealand, Laurent Law urges considering the Long Term Business Visa. Those who have funds to invest and want to settle in New Zealand should look at the Investor categories of Residence. This is yet another specialist area that Laurent Law offers advice on. Also, for clients who have started their own business under an LTBV, they can apply for Residence at any time after they arrive in New Zealand, subject to certain conditions.

The firm has recently been joined by Bill Milnes, formerly the Director of Access Immigration NZ and one of the industry’s most seasoned licensed immigration advisers. Bill’s depth of experience and problem-solving ability will be an asset to Laurent Law’s continuing growth and success, and he is looking forward to this new collaborative effort.
