• NZ Herald article on John Foliaki and his achievements with coaching at the Te Papapa Rugby Club;
• Our Managing Partner Paul Maskell being re-elected to a further three year term with the New Zealand Law Society Family Law Section Executive as well as being re-elected for a third year as Chairperson of the Section;

• Attendances to present the Inder Lynch Achievement Awards at Alfriston College by Julian Airey, at James Cook High School by Greg Stringer, at Manurewa High School by Paul Maskell, at Papakura High School and Rosehill College by Angela Pope.
