Talented Litigation partner, Nathaniel Walker, has been named one of Aotearoa New Zealand's top Private Wealth Law experts in the Chambers and Partners High Net Worth Guide 2023.
As one of only a select group of lawyers to be ranked individually, Nathaniel's notable reputation as a market-leading litigator with a focus on complex private client disputes, particularly those involving cross-border elements, has moved him up two ranking places on last year.
Russell McVeagh also received a first-time 'firm' ranking in the guide, in recognition of the depth of expertise across the wider team in this specialist area, including Tax partners Greg Neill and Fred Ward, Public Law and Regulation partner Tim Clarke and Litigation senior associate Joanna Trezise.
"This is an outstanding achievement for Nathaniel, Greg and the rest of the team, and a reflection of their expert understanding of the complex needs of high net worth individuals and their ability to provide strategic, specialist, advice"
Russell McVeagh CEO Jo Avenell
