I specialise in competition law, principally in the areas of trade practices, mergers and acquisitions, and regulation. I also have a background in consumer law, public policy, and government-related matters. During my time in private practice I have advised large domestic and multinational companies on a variety of competition, fair trading, and regulatory matters. I have advocated clients’ interests before the Commission and have overseen merger and regulatory processes on behalf of businesses.I bring to the table a wealth of knowledge of competition law, as well as an in-depth understanding of how the Commerce Commission and its processes work. I get that businesses and individuals can find engaging with the Commission and other regulators to be intimidating and unfamiliar. My experience allows me to demystify these processes, in order to achieve the best outcomes for my clients.
