Civil
law
In our civil and commercial practice, we represent a wide
range of clients facing all sorts of legal issues. From
the Shareholder and Director of a company who needs to
enforce their rights under the Companies Act, to the
consumer who needs to enforce their rights under the
Consumer Guarantees Act and Fair Trading Act. We represent
parties in high level commercial disputes, and low level
family disputes over private companies or personal
affairs.
What we bring to the table is a very human element. Both
Stephen and Roderick are familymen and businessmen, in
addition to being exceptional barristers. Stephen is
tested on the coal-face in a very wide range of disputes,
and skilled at getting his client's case across in
whatever forum necessary. Whether you're negotiating, in
mediation, or in Court, your best case will be put
forward. His calm, clear, concise, no bullsh*t approach to
disputes is of immense benefit to clients, and often finds
favour with the judiciary and opposing counsel alike.
Roderick brings a rare dual-qualification to the team, as
a doctor and a lawyer. This leaves him particularly well
suited to some nice areas of law, including medico-legal
and ACC. His experience in medicine and law also finds him
sought after for professionals facing disciplinary
proceedings.
Now, there are some areas of law that are so specialised
that we will not take instructions in them. These include
leaky building disputes, for example. If a matter is
outside our area of practice, of other commitments (such
as pending trials) mean we can not act for you, we will do
our best to point you towards someone who is really good.
After all, not only do we like to win, but we like to
help. For a no obligation free chat about your situation,
