How we work
The hardest part of a legal problem is rarely the law itself — it is not being able to see what happens next.
We take the time to understand your circumstances in full — your goals, your people, and the practical and financial realities behind the legal question.
We look across every area of law your matter touches, so problems surface before they become costly rather than afterwards.
A clear plan, explained in plain language, with your options set out and a recommendation you can actually act on.
Documents drafted, applications filed, negotiations run and hearings attended — with the strategy revisited as your circumstances change.
What to expect
Sending us an enquiry does not make you our client. We act for you only once we have checked for conflicts of interest, agreed to act, and sent you a letter of engagement setting out the scope of the work and the basis of our fees.
Before we can begin certain work — conveyancing, forming or managing companies and trusts, and handling client funds — the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 requires us to verify your identity and address. Getting those documents to us early keeps settlement dates and filing deadlines safe.
If you are facing a deadline — a visa expiry, a settlement date, a limitation period or a filing date — please telephone us on 09 215 9798 rather than relying on the website form.
