Approachable West Auckland lawyers offering practical legal advice without the corporate feel

Ebenezer Lawyers was founded in 2020 to offer a more approachable and accessible legal experience for individuals, families and businesses.

After years working in busy legal practices, including as a partner, Shehan Ebenezer saw that many people found dealing with lawyers intimidating, overly formal, and unnecessarily stressful. Ebenezer Lawyers was created to offer something different, practical legal advice, direct access to senior expertise, and clear communication without the corporate atmosphere.

Based in Hobsonville, the firm supports clients across West Auckland, North West Auckland, and throughout New Zealand through remote legal services when needed.

Direct access to senior legal expertise

At Ebenezer Lawyers, your matter is not passed through layers of staff or treated like a transaction.

You work directly with senior lawyer Shehan Ebenezer, supported by a small experienced team who understand your matter and stay close to the details. Legal advice is explained in plain English, with practical guidance designed to reduce stress and help you make confident decisions.

Whether you are
buying property, planning ahead, resolving relationship property matters or navigating business decisions, the focus stays on clear advice and responsive communication.

Most clients have a connection to the area, but matters can also be handled remotely across New Zealand when meeting in person is not practical.

Shehan Ebenezer, Senior Lawyer


Raised in Auckland and now proudly based in Hobsonville, Shehan brings more than 15 years of experience across property, family and commercial law. After working as a partner in a busy suburban firm, he established Ebenezer Lawyers in 2020 with a vision to provide legal services in a more approachable, transparent and client-focused way.
Rather than treating matters as purely transactional, Shehan works closely with clients as a trusted adviser for their family or business. He believes legal advice should be practical, easy to understand, and delivered in a way that helps clients feel supported and confident throughout the process. All property, business and family law matters are managed directly by him.
Having lived in Hobsonville since 2018, Shehan is passionate about serving the local community he calls home. Outside the office, he is a keen sports fan, runner, and proud dog owner to Harvey and Maximus — and if you visit the Hobsonville office, your dog is welcome too.

As a West Auckland local, Alisha understands the community and brings a calm, down-to-earth and personable approach to what can often be stressful transactions. Known for her friendly and thorough nature, she focuses on keeping communication clear, practical and reassuring throughout the process.
