A boutique law firm with strong Asian links and a former Robt Jones Investment s lawyer has been created in Auckland.
Kirkland Morrison O’Callahan & Ho was launched this month with entertainers Raybon Kan and Jessie Wu providing MC duties. Director Edwin Morrison said the firm had earlier merged with Focus Law, a Chinese-focused law firm run by Eva Ho.
A new boutique law firm has launched in Auckland, following the merger of several small, but highly influential, companies.
Of the 20 lawyers in the firm, seven are Chinese and the Asian community will be a key client base for Kirkland Morrison O’Callahan & Ho (KMOH and found at www.kmoh.co.nz)
“Our highly-experienced and influential team has an extraordinary range of complementary skills,” says Morrison. “We may be boutique in size and character but that means we are able to work directly with our clients to provide them with long-term strategies that deliver sustainable and successful outcomes.”
He and Mark Kirkland both previously worked at Kensington Swan before starting their own law firm 10 years ago. Kirkland has also worked with Westpac Bank and Robert Jones Investments.
Brent O’Callahan is a well-known litigation expert in both New Zealand and internationally while Hong Kong-born Eva Ho moved here in 1996 and joined Russell McVeagh, before forming her own firm, Focus Law, 10 years ago.
KMOH’s legal capabilities include commercial work, property, litigation, resource management, family, immigration and trusts.
In addition, several of its lawyers are actively involved in the NZ Outdoor Society, a not-for-profit group with more than 1,000 members which organises regular outdoor events for the NZ Chinese community.
