what our clients say...


"In January I needed help. I was referred to Eamon by several large transport operators as the person to talk to’…’After being told by our then advisor that our claim would be declined, the best advice they gave me was to get a good lawyer.’… ‘I’ll never forget Eamon’s words when he arrived “you don’t need a lawyer, you just need a good insurance broker”’… “O’Connor Warren had this major claim fully resolved and accepted in a short time. Their constant communication ensured an outcome that simply blew away our expectation. They saved our business."

"Our processing plant suffered a significant fire in recent years. The rebuilding process was difficult and time consuming. As a result, we suffered financial loss during the rebuild and for many months after. The business interruption claim was complex and hard to quantify. O’Connor Warren were with us every step of the way and managed the difficult conversations with insurers and loss adjusters. They had much negotiation over the 12 month period to ensure we received the maximum settlement possible for lost revenue. Their skill in setting up our business interruption cover and managing the claim to us sets the standard. O’Connor Warren are top-quality and always fight for their clients."
Kerry & Naomi Gamman | Gammans

“Our farm and yards were in one of the worst hit areas (of the Hawkes Bay - Cyclone Gabrielle). The viciousness of the storm meant our family and dogs were air lifted and our property left a mess. In short, we suffered major loss to our fleet, home and buildings. The clean up was a massive job and the complexity in handling the claim was huge. O’Connor Warren were recommended to us in 2018. This shift was the best decision we’ve made. We know our rebuild and claim settlements were confirmed and paid way ahead of others. Their relentless negotiations really impressed us at a stressful time.”
John Linton | JS Linton Transport

We’re proud to be associated with a brokerage that continues to set the bar so high, not only in results but in the relationships you build and the trust you inspire.

“Harwood Homes have been a client of O’Connor Warren Construction for over a decade. They are always responsive. If we call, they answer. Their advice and business support is exceptional and they will always fight for the best claim outcomes. We experience first-hand the quality that wins them insurance industry awards and recognition.”
Dave Harwood | Harwood Homes

“Can’t rate this company enough, I've been working with the team at O'Connor Warren for many years now, they always assist us with both our personal and business insurance needs. Super responsive, well organised and very good value for money. Always available when you need assistance, whether an urgent quote, an insurance extension or a claim. They are there for you.”
Jake Pascoe

“We have recently transitioned all our insurances across to O'Connor Warren. The team there have made everything so much easier. Dealing with them is a pleasure, they take the time to carefully explain things every step of the way. Previously we had our insurance cover across multiple different companies with limited communication in advance of renewals. Having everything under one roof with O'Connor Warren has been the best decision. They are really proactive keeping me informed well in advance of key dates. It's one less thing to worry about.”
Mathew Bowling | Bowcorp Holdings Limited

“Fiona Pearce at O’Connor Warren is exceptional. She went above and beyond in helping me secure insurance across multiple properties at the very last minute. What impressed me most is that she is more than just a broker – she is a true advisor, worth her weight in gold. Her knowledge, efficiency, and ability to deliver under pressure make her a stand-out professional. Fiona is without doubt a market and industry leader in New Zealand. I would not work with anyone else, as she consistently does an amazing job and provides genuine peace of mind. Highly recommended.”
Elye Parata King

“Smart Express have worked with O’Connor Warren for many years due to their industry knowledge and expertise in providing tailored insurance solutions. As a company that prioritizes custom solutions for our clients, we needed an insurance partner who not only understands the complexities of our business but also provides practical, timely advice to help shape our internal decision-making—especially when it comes to our marine and freight liability obligations. The O'Connor Warren team is always accessible, and they’ve even gone the extra mile by offering direct solutions to our own customers to reduce complexity and risk, when necessary. Given the nature of our work, which frequently involves contract projects requiring specialized marine coverage for both cargo and personnel, their support has been crucial. This strong, professional partnership plays a key role in our ongoing success and is invaluable to our operations.”

“Back in 2023 we suffered a strange but serious claim. The ground below one of our concrete pump trucks collapsed and our extended boom fell through the corner of an almost complete residential new build causing substantial damage to both the pump and the house. Isaac and the O’Connor Warren team were able to efficiently facilitate our repairs with Putzmeister but over and above that were able to negotiate a settlement for repairs to the house for the homeowner who did not have his own insurance. A great outcome in a very short timeframe."
Karl Hanlon | Jaxxon Concrete Pumps

“O'Connor Warren has been amazing to deal with, so patient with us also. They really took the time to find out what we needed from our cover. Would highly recommend!"
Michelle Silson

"After Cyclone Gabrielle the cray fisheries were wiped out. We lost about 25% of our craypots and gear out at sea. We didn’t know how we were going to recover. O’Connor Warren were hectic with claims but when we called they acted fast and worked closely to help us put together the parts we needed to claim. We didn’t even know we had cover for the lost equipment. In a short space of time we had the full settlement paid. The feeling of relief was unreal. A great team of professionals that always deliver."
Ross & Moana Jamieson | Adjai Fisheries

For several years they have assisted with insurance and claims for our business, Hope Family Funerals, and our family trust assets. they without exception been pleasant to deal with and very knowledgeable. We have saved considerable insurance costs by switching to them."
Tony & Lisa Hope | Hope Family Funerals

“Our business suffered a serious heavy motor vehicle accident on Friday 8th December. Phoned Eamon and his team at midnight who reassured us and set the ball rolling. By 5am the recovery team were on their way. Brilliant communication over the next couple of days. Claim settled by 11am Thursday 14th December. Can't rate the team high enough. Well done guys and thank you.”
Annette Cooper | DC Linehaul Limited

"Our partnership with O’Connor Warren Transport goes back 10 years. We know they are different from other brokers. Their industry connections and deep understanding of transport and our business means things just get done. Always accessible and fast. The advice they provide is exceptional. Claims handling when dealing with recoveries, repairs and insurers is without fail superb.
They set the standard and are a key part of our team. We know we are not the only ones in log transport that echo our sentiments."
Ray Beale | R&L Beale Log Transport

From Truck and Driver Magazine feature 'Building Premium Partnerships' August 2025
The operator’s view: “They know how we tick” - Graham Redington, Managing Director of Northchill Group, sees his broker relationship as a key part of his company’s risk strategy.
But for Redington, the value isn’t just about handling the worst-case scenario. He talks about switching to his current broker because they are customer focused, industry centric and will go that extra mile while managing the needs of the business. “I’ll never change from Eamon O’Connor at O’Connor Warren. He’s 100% behind you.”
Graham Redington | Northchill Group

Issac is incredibly knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile to help. His experience in the transport sector gives him a unique understanding of our needs and we get the best possible service.

“Arizto have worked with Isaac since we began trading nearly a decade ago with 7 agents. Now with over 250 agents nationwide our risk profile has changed significantly. We are pleased with the pragmatic and considered approach to complex risk transfer advice that O’Connor Warren provide as our needs change over time.”
Pernell Callaghan | Arizto

“In June 2024 our home was gutted by fire. This was the most traumatic event. The team at O’Connor Warren took control of things from the start. They attended the site the following morning, dealt with the fire inspectors, loss adjusters and insurers to ensure pressure was taken off us. A short time later we were cash settled for the full value of the home, our contents and all other policy benefits. The communication was outstanding throughout. We always knew where we stood and knew they had things under control. O’Connor Warren often talk about their service quality. We experienced it first-hand and from what we know other brokers don’t come close.”
Brett & Alison Rawson

“Great communication - this team really know their stuff! We have had our whole portfolio reviewed (Health / Life / Property / Vehicles) and O'Connor Warren were very thorough in their assessment. We gave the same info to others to price and provide feedback on, but were very impressed in the comprehensive package and discounts O'Connor Warren were able to provide. They have also offered practical advice as part of the annual review process to challenge our current set up.Professional service, and you know that you are talking to the people who are working for you. Couldn't recommend more.”
