About Us

Our firm was established in the late 1700s and is currently assisted by 35 staff.

We provide broad and sensible advice, whether dealing with personal, private or business problems. Our forte is to combine good commercial acumen, local knowledge and old fashioned values, using the latest technology and at rates more competitive than the larger city based provincial firms.

We believe it is important that Clients centre their affairs on one firm. Some people choose very small firms with perhaps one Solicitor and others choose large firms. We think the size of our firm is just right for most Private Client requirements. The Partners take a deep personal interest in all that goes on here and we are of the size that enables that to happen.

Our strengths include:

• Meeting urgent deadlines.
• Our email, phone, mobile communication and computerised case management system are the best that money can buy.
• Our phones are answered personally.
• Each Lawyer has an Assistant to back them up.
• Seamless cover when the person in the firm dealing with your matter goes on holiday or is ill.
• Knowing our local "scene" as well as anyone can.
