Charity Giving back to the Community.
Jatin Patel is a community-minded leader whose commitment to fundraising stems from a genuine desire to make a positive impact in the lives of others. His commitment to support charitable causes has earned him recognition and admiration from peers and clients, and the JP & Associates team.
On a personal fundraising level, Jatin has cycled hundreds of kilometres across New Zealand and around the World (raised around $100,000), leapt out of aeroplanes, volunteered in kitchens and actively sits on the Boards of Totara Hospice and the Child Cancer Foundation.

The Light for Life Fundraising Event was born from Jatin and Kamini Patel’s belief in the power of collective action and dedication to providing support for organisations who deliver key services to assist and enhance the wellbeing of New Zealanders. By building strong networks, fostering collaborations, and inspiring others to join the cause, the past 4 Light for Life events since 2016 have together raised over $550,000 for a number of worthy charity organisations.

Our track record is proven by our clients
Our 25-year combined track record is one with absolute integrity. A point of pride for us is the fact that rarely any of our clients have gone into Financial Hardship. Many, however, have grown their businesses far beyond expectations, and are now enjoying a significantly better lifestyle.

Jatin Patel is always interested in our future endeavours and offers sound advice on how to go about getting it.
He is also interested and asks about our family and life outside work, I genuinely feel we are not just a number but a valuable client, that he wishes the best for.
JP & Associates is really reliable - tells me everything I need to know about my tax obligations and deals with IRD on my behalf seamlessly. I do feel like you guys look after me and never miss a beat with keeping everything up to date and sort it out. I think I have been relying on you now for about twenty years now. Thank you very much for looking after me.
Team at JP & Associates provide us a with timely service by not only preparing our Accounts and GST but also guiding us for future growth regarding developing our various other businesses. They are quite different from other firms as the team members are very knowledgeable professionals on Accounting, Income Tax, GST, Management and provide guidance on financing our various projects. Plus having a well-qualified wider team ensures someone is always there to help us when we need them.
Jatin Patel is not only a good accountant but also an advisor who will add value to your business by providing value able advise on your business decisions to grow your business and arrange finance from various banks.
JP & Associates provide friendly and professional services at all times. We have been with you guys since the beginning of our business. I believe – Choose once, but choose the best.
I have been working with Mr Patel and his team for the last 4 years. His advice and meticulous attention to detail have been instrumental in the development of my investment portfolio. Mr Patel and his team are very approachable, accessible and caring. Their professionalism and high work ethic have earned them significant trust within the industry. This was very helpful to me when there was a need for high level negotiation with the IRD.
Their personalised approach makes one feel special and important. More importantly Jatin is a humble, caring and giving member of the community. For years he and his family support many charities not just through donating money but through spending countless hours/days helping out in deprived communities. I am very privileged to have Jatin and his team to oversee my business and personal finances.
Alpha Recruitment was a client of Patel Pike when we purchased the business in 2003 and I was impressed by the no-nonsense approach that Jatin in particular brought to his accountancy. Our relationship has remained strong since then and every year we have been able to get to an accurate representation of our GST liability, our tax liability, and any other issues that arise from time without a lot of drama.
In the last two years a lot of our focus has been on getting our financial and management reports onto a fixed monthly timetable and we have been helped a lot with this by Jatin and one of his seniors, Nirang Shah. With the introduction of Nirang to us as a taxation expert I feel that Jatin and Nirang, through their firm, JP & Associates, have enabled Alpha to proceed with our business plans in confidence that we are on a firm financial footing.
I am also impressed by the way that JP & Associates manage the relationship with Alpha. They are not end of year only people and are now involved in our success. I believe that if you are interested in changing your current Accountancy supplier you would have no regrets later in choosing Jatin and his firm.
