Expertise

Chris was admitted to practice in 2019 and has practised as a family lawyer since that time.

Chris is an experienced litigator specialising in property and parenting matters. Chris regularly acts in high-conflict, high-asset disputes involving trusts, companies and third-party interests. During his time practicing in New Zealand, Chris was frequently appointed as an independent children's lawyer in proceedings and uses that experience to give advice to his clients from a child focused perspective.

Chris considers it a privilege to help guide people through what is often the most difficult and distressing period in their lives. His approach is strategic and pragmatic, with a focus on achieving fair and enduring outcomes that reflect his clients best long-term interests.
