Why Families Matter ?

In the 1970’s I was touched by a speech that I heard from one of New Zealand’s greatest orators, the late Jeremy Dwyer, former Mayor of Hastings.  That speech concluded by reciting a Maori proverb that for me, speaks a universal truth,

“..He aha te mea nui? He tangata. He tangata. He tangata. What is the most important thing? It is people, it is people, it is people…”

That is a philosophy I have endeavored to embrace in my more than twenty seven years practice at the Bar and in acting for my clients either in the Family, Criminal, Traffic or Civil courts of justice.

My life experience has shown me that there are very few things in life that matter as truly and deeply as families and so in my legal practice as in my life I try to live by that epithet.
