Graeme has practised in Tauranga for over 20 years. He recognises the need to have a close understanding of his clients business and personal aspirations and that the provision of legal services per se does not provide this.

By developing a close and individual relationship with each of his clients, he endeavours to outwork the practice’s vision of “walking in your shoes”.

Business today increasingly demands meaningful strategic planning and development, both in entrepreneurial endeavours and revisioning of existing businesses. Graeme’s skills and excellent reputation in this area are highly regarded.

Graeme also adds value to company, commercial property, business and family ventures, with a special interest and expertise in trusts and trusteeships.

He also holds a number of positions as an independent Director in small and medium companies.

A keen sportsman and former representative rugby player, Graeme has also developed his interest in sports law and is the current Chairman of the Chiefs Super 14 Rugby Franchise.

Fiona's many years of experience have given her a strong and wide experience in family law, particularly with respect to relationship property division and restructuring on relationship breakdown, and parenting matters.

An ability to sensitively but firmly deal with the complex and painful area of personal relationships means that her skills are always in high demand.

Fiona's involvement as a member of the New Zealand Law Society Family Law Section has put her at the cutting edge of the rapidly and constantly changing family and relationship law.

Fiona is also involved as a mediator over a wide range of disputes. She believes that mediation remains one of the few processes that ensure that the participants remain in control and in a position to ensure they get an opportunity to be heard.
