Trusted by Businesses Across New Zealand
Real outcomes for real NZ business owners. From Northland to Southland.
We can't recommend The Margate Group highly enough. During our business's start up phase, Margate provided invaluable, clear, and precise advice on agreements and structure. They have a unique ability to explain complex legal jargon in plain terms.
I run a small freelance business and needed proper Terms of Trade after a client didn't pay on time. Margate Group made it easy, set me up with clear terms and helped recover the overdue invoice. It took a weight off my shoulders and I'd recommend them to any freelancer wanting things sorted without the big price tag.
As a SME owner, getting the right advice isn't always easy. Margate strike the perfect balance of professional, direct and genuinely caring. From contract negotiations to tricky customer non-payment disputes, they've consistently helped me achieve the right outcome. Highly recommend.
Margate Group has helped us with numerous shareholder agreements and company sales and purchase agreements. Outstanding advice, quick turn around and at a reasonable cost. Highly recommend.
