family lawyer
Care of children
Protection orders
Relationship property
Estate disputes
I practise in all areas of family law including relationship property; trusts; care of children; family violence and protection of personal and property rights. I also advise clients on estate claims.
Having been admitted to the bar in 1994, I have experience in a wide range of litigation including civil and commercial; resource management and ACC. In August 2015 I formed the Devonport Law partnership and in April 2020 I joined the independent bar. I combine my experience and expertise, built over years of legal practice, with compassion and understanding, focusing on practical solutions that meet the objectives of my clients.
