Office: Ferrymead

As head of our Ferrymead office alongside partner Nicola Coombes, I provide comprehensive legal services to clients across the Bays, Hills, Coastal, and Eastern Christchurch. My practice focuses on commercial transactions, financing, business sales and purchases, leasing, residential construction, and property matters. I also advise individuals and families on asset planning, helping safeguard their interests with clarity and foresight.

With experience in both national and Canterbury firms, I deliver practical legal solutions grounded in strong, trusted relationships. Whether you're growing a business, buying your first home, or planning your legacy, I pride myself in being a legal advisor that enables you to make well-informed, confident, and timely decisions.

In addition to my legal profession, I serve as the Honorary Consul of the Philippines, supporting cross-border business and providing tailored legal assistance to Filipinos nationwide. I hold both Law and Commerce degrees from the University of Otago (Finance and Economics), a Master’s degree in Banking and Finance from the University of Sydney, and completed a semester at the law faculty in the National University of Singapore. Now based in Christchurch, I’m committed to supporting local networks and adding value to our city’s diverse communities.
