Godfreys Law is a Christchurch law firm with roots going back to about 1870, which makes it one of the city's longest-established practices. It is on the third floor at 22 Moorhouse Avenue in Addington, and the website says there is plenty of parking. The firm covers commercial and personal law, with listed areas including conveyancing and property, commercial and employment law, relationship property and life law. Clients can book online or in person, and the firm says it offers basic legal advice before a client engages it. The firm also backs several community groups, including Citizens Advice Bureau, the Life Education Trust Canterbury, Nurse Maude, Youth Hub, Sydenham Cricket Club and Upstream.
Customers say the communication is clear and the explanations are easy to follow. The most common reason people give is their first home purchase, and several describe the process as easy. One customer who had used the firm before chose it again for a home purchase, and another described the staff involved in their purchase as professional and efficient. A first-home buyer said the solicitor was always happy to answer questions and made everything feel less stressful. Among the seven other lawyers within a kilometre, Addington Law Centre, 0.4 km away, rates 4.5 from 12 reviews. Of the three nearby firms with ten or more reviews, none rates higher than this one.
