Carolyn has been dedicated to helping clients achieve their commercial property goals since 2003.

Whether you are a large institutional investor looking to expand your established portfolio or a family considering subdivision options on a large section, Carolyn is here to help.

Carolyn believes that being a good lawyer goes beyond merely knowing the law; it's about being an outcome focused problem solver who collaborates with clients to help them achieve their objectives. For optimal results in challenging situations, she advises seeking legal advice early in the process. Her proactive approach was demonstrated recently in a receivership sale, where early legal consultation allowed the client to structure the sale effectively, ensuring a smooth settlement process.

Carolyn can help with:

• Property development and subdivisions
• Sales and purchases of commercial property
• Commercial leasing agreements
• Off the plan purchases
• Forestry rights negotiations
• Property finance

A true property enthusiast, Carolyn often drives her husband crazy by checking new property listings across multiple regions daily. She is passionate about property law and enjoys navigating the complexities of the property system to find solutions for her clients. She can't imagine being anything other than a lawyer.

Carolyn is an active member of the Property Law Section of the NZ Law Society and sits on the Section's Land Titles Committee, providing insights to Land Information New Zealand regarding the impact of LINZ on the legal profession and clients.

Outside of work, Carolyn enjoys spending time with her family at the beach, exploring the Wellington hills, and keeping up with her son.
